Grez Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 Hi all, This is my first post (yay!). The subject says it all really. Ive seen this unit available at Amazon (uk). Is it any good? Is the body plastic or metal?It seems to be very cheap compared to other units... It also available at Empiredirect (uk) for an even cheaper price(>£60). Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Welcome. :happy: It's not bad, but if I were you I'd look at the Sharp IM-DR400-420 series. For about 30 pounds more, you'd get a truely functional unit. The Aiwa is a budget model - what are your primary uses of Minidisc going to be?

Grez Posted June 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Thanx for the reply :smile: I initially had this idea that i wanted some sort of portable audio device(general, i know!) to listen to mp3s from my pc and also tracks from CDs. I looked at various mp3 players e.g. iPod and also various solid state players. These either proved too expensive(iPod) or limited in storage capacity(solid state players within my price range). Then i noticed Net MD minidisc players..... they seem to fit the bill perfectly! Im only interested in audio playback of tracks from my pc so don't require anything particularly fancy. Relating to the Aiwa AM-NX9, do you know what shock protection it has? The various websites say something like "...Anti- Skip E.A.S.S.GP...". What does this mean? I'll have a look at the unit(s?) you recommend though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
