NIMH rechargeable battery and charger are supplied to provide greater convenience and saving over replaceable batteries. Character Input for Titling let you create or modify individual track information as the MiniDisc is being recorded. Date and Time Stamp automatically places a date and time marker on each recording f...

Review:
The MZ-R55 is a great MD player. Advanced, the MD boasts a tiny, fit-in-your-palm size with everything you need for a digital recorder. But the R-55 lacks one major feature--a long battery life. Reading the other reviews and having experience...

Featured packed MD Player/Recorder

Date of Review:  Jul 8, 1999
Review: In this day and age it takes quite a bit to impress your average technophile. But Sony has a knack for combining stylish design and electronic wizardry in a must-have package.
