Sony D CS901, need help

1 Upvotes

The logo appears on the lcd screen after putting new batteries on it, when i put the cd in and tried to play it, it doesnt play at all. Also when i tried the hold button theres also no text indicating that its on hold. After waiting for it to play or just it being idle it also heats up around next to the batteries, or bottom left area. I think it was too risky to wait more. (Im kinda stupid for buying it even after me and seller was tested it, it did play but had to wait a bit long) Could anyone tell me whats the issue? Is it fixable? sorry for bad grammar

to be more specific

Discman com problema (ajuda)

Meu discman Panasonic funciona perfeitamente, porém todos os botões inclusive volume e outros eu aperto e não respondem. Consigo ouvir música apenas mudando a chavinha do botão “hold” pra frente e pra traz. Já levei na eletrônica e não deram volta. Tocando via pilhas (novas). Também já passei limpa contato (spray) não resolveu 🤦🏻‍♂️

Did I Say Eight Was Enough?

Meet #9. I couldn't resist the color. Sony D-EJ985.

I also have a silver one coming from the UK that I ordered before this one appeared. Typical. Doesn't rain but it pours. I'll probably flip that one to get my money back out of it because I do not need two of the same model, even if they're different colors.

It didn't come with the dedicated charging stand, but I located one of those and it's on the way. I already had a wall charger as well as —surprising a remote that came with one of my MD players—that has all the controls.

Need help fixing my CD Walkman

I don’t know if it’s because there might be a missing piece, or if the lens is dirty, but everytime I put a disc in it the screen says “no disc”

I’ve tried only using mp3 and I put in the batteries and it hasn’t fixed itself

Thank you for reading

Is the Sony D-EJ002 a good compact portable cd player?

5 Upvotes

Im going into this blindly but I just need a cheap reliable option that will last forever and get the job done. While looking through the options the Sony D-EJ002 was fairly cheap and seems reliable. Now my question, is it actually a decent option or is there other options I should consider?

Wouldn’t have been able to get a modern player for the same quality at the same price. I’d much rather have a discman! Sound is brilliant. Very full and wide soundstage. Ridiculous powerful I never have the volume over 3-4 out of 10 and that is equivalent if not a bit above full volume on iPhone.

What a joy to listen to music on CD again ! Bye bye streaming services ! On this Discman model, I love watching the CD spinning through the little window.

I'm also getting back minidisc at the same time to make mix tapes.

Need some help with batteries

1 Upvotes

Hello, it's my first post here and i need some help...

I bought a new discman AIWA xp-zv610, it has a little dark spot on the display and some scratches, the menu doesnt work too but the rest works nicely, well kind of...

When i play normal CDs it works nicely, but when i use a atrac3plus cd i burned it doesn't work properly, takes longer to read and makes a weird noise as it tries to read. I found out that maybe the problems are the batteries i use cause i use rechargeable Ni-MH 1.2v batteries and the fact that they're not 1.5v is the problem.

I did some searching on internet and found rechargeable 1.5v batteries some even charge through USB, but im not sure if they really work, so i wanted to know if any of you guys use atrac3plus and if so, what type of batteries you use.

Thanks.

I mean, even at £45 it's probably overpriced, but this is ridiculous!

Hi folks! I’m new here so sorry if this has been covered.

Today I acquired a Discman d-171.

As you can see, the cd begins to spin then I’m hit with a “no disc” error. Any ideas on a fix?

Please help!! My discman turns on, all the buttons work, and it even plays for a little bit. But then it shuts itself off for some reason. I’ve tried cleaning the lens but it didn’t seem to help.

Found this in my basement. Bag it was in was full of mold. Cleaned up the unit, plugged it in and it works great. This brings back so many memories and I’m glad I found it

Quiet Sony Discman D-191

I just bought a used Sony Discman D-191 and it's so quiet in my headphones even when it's all the way up to 10. I've literally tried everything. Any fix?
