MDane Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Hello, for sale is a MDX-C5970 car minidisc SP deck, asking $50 + actual shipping. The deck and faceplate are mint. However, as said in the title, there is a catch: The deck has no speaker output. I picked this up maybe 5 years ago, as a friend had hooked it up incorrectly, and shorted out the onboard amp. However, since the RCA outputs work fine, for someone that plans to use an amplifier, this deck is pretty much perfect. Every last (other) feature works as new, and the display is still as bright as new - which it should be as the deck has been used very little. I had intentions of using it with an amp myself...but picked up an 8500X around the same time, and the deck never moved from where I stored it. Now, upon rediscovering it, I feel it needs a good home, rather than sit idle any longer. The C5970 is one the more popular SP Sony MD units for those "in the know", as it was from the last series of US MD decks before Sony decks "Xploded" into red everything w. odd looking buttons, etc. As seen, I have the deck, faceplate, and harness...but may have more odds and end (screws, trim plates, etc). I will dig around and update as soon as I find more, but for now assume the items seen are all that is included. Hopefully there's someone here that appreciates the deck, as I would rather sell here than Ebay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGHMW Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 I hate to bring up an old thread, but is this great unit still for sale??? I am interested in buying it.My MDX-C5970 went out on me just last week, and I do know about the amp issues but I too, would use it only with an external amp, so the built-in one is moot point.Please PM me with a quote for shipping to zip code 98368. I do have paypal so you can send me an invoice as soon as I establish contact, so go ahead and PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I do have a very nice Kenwood MD unit I will likely put up for sale in the next couple weeks...as soon as I get around to taking it out and reinstalling the factory deck in a car I am selling. Let me know if you might be interested in that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
