As I say this unit is better than expected, it has a great sound, it is also very versatile with tuner, aux, md & cd, the dubbing from one to another is especially useful. This unit is a good quality well made piece of hi-fi, it might be from the past, but it is now I feel appreciated possibly more than when it was first introduced? I have serviced & replaced all the belts etc in my one, it is now 100%, so to sum up I would highly recommend this unit to anyone who like me is a bit sick of some aspects of sound modern technology & just want to wallow in the past a little!!?? Many thanks!

I bought this as I wanted a compact MD/CD/Tuner unit for the kitchen and I have to say I'm impressed with it. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of my full size MD decks but I don't need them as I use this mainly as a player. Sound quality is good on all four sources, CDs play as they should, the tuner is pretty sensitive and the auto reverse tape deck is OK but lack of Dolby NR means some tapes are a bit hissy. I would recommend this to any MD user looking for a compact system to play their media with the added bonus of cassette, CD and tuner, and also do basic MD recording and editing.

Bought this to replace my old version of this exact unit. Had it for nearly 15 years and to this day holds up as some of the best sound quality I've ever had for a two speaker system, unfortunately my old one had lost function in CD, Minidisc and developed an issue with bass at higher volumes on one side. I put this down to the age of the unit which I now have full access to again thanks to a well looked after unit from a previous owner. Truly a good example of Sony's ability to create long lasting high quality sound systems.

As an electronics technician l got everything serviced 121 except the auto-reverse cassette playback head. Need a new one but don't know where I can find it. Any ideas guys? I intend incorporating a small brush less cooling fan at the back. For now I am quite happy with it. Photos coming later. 💯 👍

Sony produced a real winner here, nothing else compares for versatility and quality in such a compact package regardless of price. Replaced a previous identical system which had failed, after searching and unsuccessfully finding anything better.
