I stick with the Sony ones. They are all good, but much will depend on if any compression was used in the recording altrac 3 is usually the best to get. You can use the portable walkmans and plug the headphones into your stereo ...sound pretty good. I have 2 or three walkmans and either one or 2 big units...cant remember . If I have 2 you can have one. or if you want a walkman just say.

I love my Pioneer MJ-D707 MiniDisc deck. I don't use it often, but recordings made via my Meridian 507 play back virtually as well as the original. It's a really good recording medium for my purposes. Certainly vastly better than any cassette deck I've used.

Is the sound presentation ''neutral'' sounding from these machines?

It's as neutral as the source. Mine adds or removes nothing, it just reproduces rather well!

Pair of DM5s being sold by a colleague of mine. A bit scruffy but working OK.
