Guest Anonymous Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 Hi guys, Im looking at buying a MD. Which is the best that I can get for around $150-200 US Thanks a ton for any help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugo Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 It really depends on how you will use the MD unit. Live recording? Playing your CD collections? Playing mp3 from your computer? If you can live without netmd, Sharp MT770 will be a great unit that will be worth every penny (it's about $220). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 Im mostly going to be using it as a music player for ripping my CDs, and mp3 off my computer. And 200$ is my max price, nothing higher, Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugo Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 In that case it will be good to have netmd. IMO sony MZ-N505 will be your best choice. ubid.com is selling it only for around $83 (new and shipping included). You can spend the rest of your budget on blank minidiscs.

Guest Anonymous Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 Thanks for the advice Also, Is going up a level (to the 707) worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugo Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 The only major difference is that n707 has a mic input and n505 doesn't. Sony's mic input has pretty bad reputation. Spending the price difference on a decent mic with preamp and use the line-in jack is a better way to go. I heard the internals of these two models are almost exactly the same. n707 costs much more just for marketing purposes. So I think n505 is still the best deal.

Guest Anonymous Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 Ok, looks like Ill go with the 505, but I dont really like the gold color. You know any where that sells the 505S (silver) for around that same price? Again, thanks a ton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugo Posted March 1, 2003 Report Share Posted March 1, 2003 ecost.com has it for $120 including shipping. You can probably find a new one at ebay for around $110 shipped. I didn't like gold either. But I only use it for recording so I went for the price. oh by the way, I strongly recommend sonicstage over openmg or realone. Once you tried all of them you will know what I mean.
