Gnavicks Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 Does the Sony CDX-GT81UW support the MZ-RH1 on its USB Input? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky191 Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 I would doubt it. It would expect a UMS device and the RH1 isn't one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnavicks Posted August 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 That's correct. That's why we have to go to great lengths and use a Connects 2 adapter, Gnavicks...I was just curious as I had just bought everything necessary to connect my MZ-RH1 to my new car receiver.

gmdisc Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 (edited) Where can I get that connects2 adapter?? I have the same Sony head unit, which I love and would be absolutley ecstatic to be able to hook up my portable HiMD!! I emailed the connects2 company at both sales and technical departments but not heard back yet. Edited August 6, 2007 by gmdisc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGHMW Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 My setup involves an MDX-C5970 AM/FM/MD receiver, along with both an MDX-65 6-MD changer, and soon, my MZ-NH700 Hi-MD Walkman hooked up to the Connects2 ASONWHD001, (when both the changer and the NH700 are hooked up through the facilities of an XA-C40 multi-changer adapter, that part coming soon).

gmdisc Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 looking like my connects2 adapter will arrive on the 13th (Monday). Can't wait,. Ill post a report of how well it works asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmdisc Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 been using mine for couple days now. It is pretty good - excellent sound when listening to 192k and higher bit rates. Have got the Title and Artist when using the NH900 but not new models as stated in the other post about this adapter. Personally I don;t think it's worth it to send in for firmware upgrade just so I can use my rh10 or rh1 with it. However, if the newer firmware also fixes a problem Im having then it is worth it. Problem is this. If I remember to change my Lidtening source before turning off the car (like switching to CD or FM),. then when I go back to the Hi-MD after restarting the car, it remembers where I left off,. but I have to remember to do that everytime,. kind of a pain. If I shut off the car with the Hi-MD playing,. the next time I start up it goes back to the beginning of the disc. A little annoying but not a big deal. Overall I am impressed with the sound and love being able to navigate my Hi-MD from the HU. BTW, it goes to six on groups and then starts over as if it is another 6 disc changer in the car. ie,. when I go to the 7th group on the disc it reads as group one. hmmm.
