The Sony MZ-R90 portable mini-disc player is a good item to buy, however, the buyer must know how to use it, as it can be confusing! (read more)

Sound on this Sony MZ-R90 US mini disc player isn't great. It takes too long to access tracks. I'm selling mine at the moment. It's no different to a MP3 or Discman other than size but it costs so much more. (read more)

this MD player is about the best one i have so far, i also have aiwa-am-f70, sharp-831. the sony mz-r90 is obvioustly smaller than the two other one i have. the sound quality comes out better too ^_^. for the person who said that the sound is bad.. try getting better earphones. this player's apperance is not that good though. remote control is superior in function and look. i suggest all of you get this. i bought it for 200 dollars at 800.com... yea 200.(us dollars) and it hasnt given me any...

My advice is not to buy it. Fork out a little more and get yourself a hi-fi and then a personal MD player not a personal MD recorder. This will cost you more, but I think that it is worth it. (read more)

Don't tell me you mean via the "bundled" headphones!! Try Sony's MDR-EX70LP.. You'd be amazed!

<br>Recommended song for testing -- Sade's "By Your Side" --
<br>
<br>Turn the megabass to "1" (middle position), volume to the third quarter of the max level. Ahhhh.., listen to those chord-sliding sounds from that guitar.. Not to mention the beautiful & powerful bass.. If you haven't fallen in love with her (Sade) yet, you will this time!!

I have a Sony MZ-R90 US model and I have had it for a week and really like it. It has great battery life (12 hours) and sounds really good. It's the tiniest MD player/recorder on the market and not only that but it has the option of adding on 1 AA battery and increasing the battery life to 29 hours. Also the remote for the R90 is very cool looking and very easy to use with its backlit screen and lever on the side for changing songs. This unit is the coolest looking one that I have ever...

um... a hifi system cost ALOT MORE than the player/recorder and it's got no use for most of us. we can just pop a cd into the computer and record right from the computer and we can also record MP3 from the computer... so my suggestion is... BUY THE MZ-R90 and a PC LINK. that's all you need. NOT A HIFI SYSTEM. A HIFI MD SYSTEM IS USELESS TO MOST OF US AND IT COSTS 700 US DOLLARS.
