5.0 out of 5 stars Great little player., 19 Feb 2003

By	ben - See all my reviews

Being my first minidisc pucrchase, Ive got nothing really to reference this opinion against, but overall I found this player to be fantastic.

The quality of sound it produces, even compared to a personal CD player is streets ahead, and when combined with the sony street-style headphones, nothing else really comes close! The advice I was given, when buying this particular model was that it was the best on the market at the moment, and I have no reason to doubt that fact.

If anyone is worried about buying a non-Sony model, as I was at the time, a friend of mine bought a sony model for a similar price as I paid at the same time as me, and I was almost embarassed to show her my minidisc. It looked, felt, and sounded so far superior to hers, I almost felt guilty! Although the cradle is a little annoying to take with you, as stated elsewhere, there is always the option of using 1 additional AA battery which boosts life to about 50ish hours, more than enough for most! Overall, a great buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent MiniDisc player, 4 Dec 2002

By	"trickymickey" - See all my reviews

I have had the Sharp MT877 for over a year and have found it to be absolutely brilliant. Whilst the buttons are a little bit fiddly I have never had a significant problem with them, and the styling and sound quality are excellent. Contrary to some of the reviewers experiences I have found MDLP very useful, the quality at LP2 is barely reduced from normal, and LP for is good for spoken media; you can copy whole books or language courses from CDs and they sound fine, the battery lasts much longer too!

As to reliability, my sister and I have both owned the sharp for over a year and have had no problems at all; my girlfriend and a friend of mine bought Sonys, at the same time as I got the Sharp and they have had nothing but problems with them, and they have found Sony's customer support absolutely appalling, in particular do not buy a Sony from oversees and expect your waranty to provide any significant level of cover in the U.K.

The only downside I have found with the sharp is with the cradle, I found it a bit of an inconvenience, as it requires that you carry an additional item around with you when you are travelling, there however seems to be a trend for all minidisc players to include the cradle as a means of reducing size. In short I can seriously recommend this minidisc player, and I can definitely state that it is both robust and reliable when compared with the Sonys.

2.0 out of 5 stars Sharp MD cops out!, 3 Jul 2001

By A Customer

I bought this model and had it approx 3 days before I took it back to the store, and asked for my money back. In comparison to older sharp MD models (821/821) this feels very tinny and is nowhere near as robust. The controls are far too small and fiddley. The gimmick of having MDLP is just that....a gimmick!. The sound is horribly compressed at x 4, that it renders it a totally worthless feature in my opinion. If you really MUST have a MDLP - the Sony 900 is the best on the market for sure, but if I were you I'd stick with the older models if you can still find them out there. For my money you can't beat these 2.....AIWA AM-F80 and Sharp MD-MT831
