Sony MZ-NH1 MiniDisc player/recorder (silver). Quantity 1. Used.
** Player/recorder only. No other items, batteries, or accessories are included in the sale **
Summary:
A functional device with callouts regarding the appearance.
** This model requires a Sony LIP-4WM Li-ion battery (or equivalent) to operate unless there is direct power via a charging stand or equivalent **
*** Personal note: This model sounds fantastic, and while far from perfect cosmetic condition, it has a lot of character. Recommend using in conjunction with an RM-MC40ELK to make adjustments to the audio profiles. Custom #2 has been set for a Techno profile. ***
Product Condition (Appearance):
Display Panel - No noticeable scratches.
Front Face - A lot of discolouration and scale where presumably the metallic body has reacted with something.
Sides - Some discolouration and scale where presumably the metallic body has reacted with something. Part of the printed SONY logo has worn away.
Rear Face - Some discolouration and scale where presumably the metallic body has reacted with something. A few very shallow dents.
All external facing screws present and tightened.
Product Condition (Functionality):
The device is functional.
