4 out of 5 stars A decent, inexpensive field recorder.......2006-06-02

Since this unit has been discontinued for a couple of years now, I'm not sure anyone is even reading this review! For those of you who are, all I can say is that I have three of these, all bought on eBay for about $60. I use them for recording local choirs and also for recording the rear two audio channels when I do surround-sound recording with my HDV camcorder on documentaries.

I had expected by this time that I would be switching to some elegant solid-state audio recording solution, but to my surprise nothing reasonably compact and cost-effective has appeared yet. Until then, these little Sharp Minidisc units will do the job. Audio quality is excellent and one can adjust the record level while recording. The big feature, of course, is that one can record from a microphone with this unit. I use an AT-822 stereo microphone, a very high-quality unit.

These are getting harder to find on eBay.

3 out of 5 stars Price gouging????.......2005-04-25

I bought a Sharp MD MT15 from Circuit City in August 2000. I paid $179.99 for it. There is absolutely no difference between that unit and the one shown here. Why is this one so expensive?

As far as the product goes, it was a very handy tool for a working musician. I kept it in a padded, waterproof container in my briefcase. It worked great for 4 years, then it suddenly quit working in July 2004 for no apparent reason. I got a "TOC Error" on every single disk that I loaded. I might consider buying another one - but not without an extended warranty... and I certainly wouldn't pay more than $150 for it!!

1 out of 5 stars MISLEADING PRICE.......2005-02-01

I saw this unit listed for 49 dollars used. None to be found! I am so sick of misleading ads!

5 out of 5 stars A great little player.......2002-12-11

I've had this player for almost 3 years now and it still works great. It has good battery life, it's moderately easy to use, it makes good recordings too. The headphones that come along with it are really awesome too. They feel great and have a good sound too. The piece of plastic that clicks when you adjust them broke, but that was after extended use.

I guess I kind of don't like the bulkiness of it, but back when I had it that was about the standard thickness. It's not that great looking either. As far as the sound goes it's nothing spectacular. I think it could be a little bit louder, but maybe all of my recordings are too quiet. One thing is obvious though, the bass boost button really doesn't do a whole lot. I can barely tell a difference when I push it.

I wanted to give a full review so I threw in a few "cons" but overall it's a great player.
