Two years ago my dad went to Japan on business and knowing that electronics there are so much cheaper I asked him to buy me a minidisc player. In the weeks before he went I was searching the Internet for information about minidiscs, trying to decide which one I should get. The site I found most helpful on my search was minidisc.org From that site ...  Read the complete review

Having considered the similarly priced Sony model with radio included I was dissappointed to discover that the radio was contained completely in the headphone remote and the only reason for connection to the minidisc unit was for battery. Therefore I decided to go fo the purely minidisc model and hopefully achieve better sound quality. ...  Read the complete review

This little devil or a unit was first bought to my attention at a local dixons store in the south west UK. I have always wanted one and the salesman told me it was 'the best one around' so I purchased it. Since then I have enjoyed not only the walks to university every morning but also the added function of being able to copy songs I have ...  Read the complete review

I made a snap decision to by an MD player recently, having seen a friend's Panasonic and my brother-in-law's MZ-R900. Having compared a few models online, I plumped for this one mainly because I found it from QED-UK for about £30 less than the Panasonic. Lookswise, it's very good. The UK models don't come in as many ...  Read the complete review

Well, like most of you, I purchased an MP3 player and returned it a week later, due to poor battery life and expensive memory. Before making my decision on a decent music device to purchase (for the gym and air travel), I read all the reviews here and found it most helpful (Thank you all for writing these reviews!) Anyway, the ...  Read the complete review

The Sony MZ-R900 is my first venture into the world of the MiniDisc (MD) format, and let me say from the outset that I am impressed. Thanks to the MiniDisc Long Play (MDLP) system and the supplied optical lead, you can record almost two-and-a-half hours of music in LP2 mode direct from CD onto a sturdy 74-minute disc costing less than a quid with ...  Read the complete review

The MZR-900 is a very good minidisc player/recorder. You can change the recording quality and the long play recording can record in stereo sound for 320 minutes on one normal minidisc, which is a very good accomplishment. The headphones are not so good but the remote is relatively easy to use and the tracks are quite quick and easy to label. ...  Read the complete review

My first venture into the realms of Minidisc couldn't have been any better, in my opinion. Words cannot emphasise how small this thing really is and it does EVERYTHING! Sony have really thought of everything when it comes to this little beauty. It looks good, it sounds excellent, and it comes with every gadgets to keep you going ...  Read the complete review

Blue, sleek design, light, small, superb remote control and all for under £200? Too good to be true? No, not with the Sony MZR-900. I bought this fantastic Minidisc player last week for £200, instead of the High Street price of £230. I opted for the blue design instead of the silver one-everyone with a Minidisk player had a silver one! (Other ...  Read the complete review

After the drama of the MZ-R91 (for those of you who haven't read my review of it, I bought one which was faulty, and then the replacement model was also faulty!!) anything that actually worked would have been enough to put a smile on my face... After searching every store within 400miles of my house (all sold out – I was not ...  Read the complete review

As soon as I opened the box the the MZ-R900, I liked the unit straight away. It is extremely compact and light - in fact it is the smallest minidisc recorder in the world at the moment!

I couldn't decide between the Panasonic SJ-MR200 and the Sony MZ-R900. I decided to go for the MZ-R900 because the sound quality was better and the people who invented the mini disc made it. When I first opened the box I loved the shape and design of the MZ-R900 straight away. I got it in silver because on the MD unit the back of the screen is ...  Read the complete review

Its a toss up in this day and age between CD MiniDisc, or Mp3. MiniDisc is clearly the best I feel, its small compact and ...  Read the complete review

The peak of portable mini discs was hit with Sony's MZ-R91, or at least that's what I thought. They have recently unveiled the MZ-R900, this is far superior in every way, shape and form. The major new feature of the 900 is the MDLP, which allows either 2x or 4x the recording time on a single mini-disc without sacrificing significant ...  Read the complete review
