MDX-400 Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 Yeah I know I can get one of these on eBay but I don't really feel like paying $15 US to have it shipped from China If anyone has a USB cable for either an MZ-N10 or MZ-NH1 (it's the same cable) lying around (perhaps from a broken unit or something) and wants to sell it, let me know.

MDX-400 Posted April 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 How much do those cables cost nowadays?On eBay they can be had for $20 US ($5 + $15 shipping).Sony DAPC USA charges $34 US + ship for the N10 cable and $47 US + ship for the NH1 cable. They use different part numbers though I believe they are electrically identical. Someone mentioned the cables might be different lengths though.Fairly ridiculous considering they could have used a mini-B on the dock at the very least, making a cable cost like $2-$5 (actually nothing for most ppl because most ppl have a mini-B for something or other) and it would also be available at a local store.

Mr_Bass_Man Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 (edited) They use different part numbers though I believe they are electrically identical. Someone mentioned the cables might be different lengths though. Based on a sample of four (two "original" NH1 cables, one "original" N10 cable plus an "Ebay" cable acquired whilst I only had the N10 unit) it appears that the NH1 cables are the same, or about the same length as the N10 ones, but wit a couple of turns around the ferrite suppressor. They are indeed electrically identical, at least as far as the UK market is concerned. HTH I think it is most unfortunate that the NH1 charging cradle doesn't include the USB connection in the same way the N10 one does. My N10 cradlle is a "permanent fixture" on my desk, all wired up to the PC and ready to go ... Edited April 19, 2006 by Mr_Bass_Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
