darktrain Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 You have got to be kidding, you type in sony mz and you have lots to choose from, how is buying from ebay any different than the forum for you the buyer, in fact you have more protection through ebay. more hassle for the seller, maybe.

Sparky191 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Sorry my bad, I missed the non HiMD bit. Seems to loads of them on ebay and most used forums. Is there much of a difference between non HiMD and HiMD players in terms of battery life? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A440 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Battery life on my MZ-NH700 is comparable to my MZ-N707. Alkalines last a long time. One new Duracell = 1 Hi-MD at Hi-SP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmp64 Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 (edited) Sorry my bad, I missed the non HiMD bit. Seems to loads of them on ebay and most used forums. Is there much of a difference between non HiMD and HiMD players in terms of battery life?Battery life on a Hi-MD unit is about half that of a NetMD. I would highly recommend either a MZ-N505 or a MZ-NF610. I've had both of these units for years with no problems (the NF610 has a radio too, built in to the remote) - battery life with one "AA" is 40-50 hours at LP2. On eBay, as of this morning (Saturday 8/11) there are 8 MZ-NF610s for an average price of $30, and 10 or so MZ-N505 for around the same price). Again, I'd get the MZ-NF610 - has a radio and more features than the 505.I understand what you are saying about buying from someone on the forum - but you'll have to wait for something to show up here, vs. eBay where you can get something NOW.

Sparky191 Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Battery life on a Hi-MD unit is about half that of a NetMD. ...Wasn't aware of that as my non HiMD units were older than NetMD. I think I'd prefer to lose the battery life and gain the HiMD features. But for a cheaper player a NetMD is an interesting choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffgrado Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 If you change your mind on Hi-MD, this is still for sale.http://forums.minidisc.org/index.php?showtopic=19506 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
