Xeys_00 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 I am considering getting a mint condition(from original owner) MZ-2p. The reason is that it has an optical out, and would let me record on another unit in SP, and then use the 2p to run it in optically on my macbook pro. Any thoughts on this? It looks like a viable alternative to getting the RH-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJ_Palmer Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 I had one of these, bought second hand on ebay, but in excellent physical condition. Don't wish to put you off, but my own experiences with the MZ-2P weren't all that great. It seemed to be extremely finicky with my SP discs. Some it would play OK, others it would completely refuse to. It might have been the 80 min discs that were a particular problem, or the fact that they were recorded using a newer ATRAC codec, but anyway I gave up in the end. Maybe it was just the particular unit I had that was dodgy, though it might be worth thinking about getting a deck with optical out instead, I've never had any problems with those.

bobt Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 The MZ 1 is also finicky on discs, it's best on prerecorded, doggy on the rest, but I still love it.Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
