Product Description

Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The MZ-R37SP is a reasonably priced portable MiniDisc player and recorder. It includes a big 40-second shock buffer. While the 40-second buffer should be enough to offer virtually skip-free operation while you exercise, most MD portables on the market these days deliver comparable protection.

Product Description
The MZ-R37SP is a reasonably priced portable MiniDisc player and recorder. It includes a big 40-second shock buffer. While the 40-second buffer should be enough to offer virtually skip-free operation while you exercise, most MD portables on the market these days deliver comparable protection. This unit comes with an optical digital connecting cable you can run from your CD player to the MZ-R37SP for recording. It also offers Digital Synchro Recording, which triggers the MD player's recording function the instant a signal is received from the CD player. What's more, this model's sample rate converter allows recording from digital sources recorded at different sampling rates without you having to make any adjustments. The MZ-R37SP includes Sony's AVLS (Automatic Volume Limiter System), which keeps the music from playing dangerously loud when activated. It also has the requisite "Mega Bass" bass boost system.

4Excellent buy.
By N. Holmes
The Sony Mz-R37P is an excellent buy. I've seen it at Amazon for $149, but I was able to purchase it for $99 at JandR Music World (jandr.com), a highly reputable electronics store in NYC. Let me start off by stating that the R37 is in the phase out stage, so if you want to get one at these great prices, you better do it soon. The R37 is being replaced by other models, which have longer recording times (the R37's limit is 80 min.), can be hooked up to a computer for music downloads, come with a remote, AC power cord and only use 1 AA battery instead of 2. Now that I have stated everything the RZ37 is not, let me tell you what it is: In the product descriptions for this item, you will not find any mention that this great Mini Disc rec/player has a steel body, yet only weighs a little over a pound and is small and compact; has a line out jack, so that you can connect it to a stereo for play back; can be connected to a remote (purchased seperately); has the capibility to erase, move and name tracks (up to 1500 characters); has two levels of mega bass, which you will not even have to use, because the bass on the play back is so clear and tight; and has an AVLS function to limit the range of your dynamic digital recording to protect your hearing; and has the the standard stuff (like a locking mechanism) to boot. This guy (or gal, whatever you prefer) does it all. Buy it now if you are not ready to spend over $200 on a portable minidisc rec/player. Sony did it again. Oh, and it can use rechargeble batteries, too.

4Good Mini Disc Player
By A Customer
I just bought this mini disc during Christmas and I paid around 200 at a local store. This thing is great! I use this everyday to record my favorite songs! Although this unit is kind of bigger than some of the other mini disc I have seen. It is small enough to fit in your pocket! The mini disc also came with a USB cable to connect to your pc (which you can record your mp3's; 74 or 80 minutes). The input of the USB connector is analog, but the mini disc can record analog or digital! This mini disc also came with a remote, which has very nice features. But I noticed that the remote is not backlit, which makes it difficult to use in the dark (no problem for some though). There was also a pair rechargable batteries that came in the box too! Also, when you need to change batteries, this mini disc also does not need an external case for using batteries! (Unlike some of the mini disc I've seen that require an external case.) This thing uses regular AA batteries. I recommend this player to anyone looking for a mini disc player or planning to buy a new one!

4great new techi toy
By A Customer
With so many different mini disc players out there it can be hard to choose the "right one." However, this little player/recorder is probably one of the best out there at the moment for its price. Not only can you play your music in a great compact manner, you can make your own compilations to enjoy all with one piece of equipment. Definatley make this one of your next buys.
