646.1 | At Cuomo's | PARSEC::PESENTI | JP | Wed Feb 18 1987 07:03 | 2 |
| Saw the D10 at Cuomo's in Salem, NH, recently, for the same price minus sales
tax.

646.2 | D10 at Lechmere | JUNIOR::STUDIVAN | | Sun Feb 22 1987 20:22 | 5 |
| Lechmere in Framingham now carries the Sony D-10 for $299.00. I don't know
if they had any in stock, but there was one on display.

646.3 | D10 vs. D77? | LA780::LONGO | Bob Longo | Wed Feb 25 1987 19:34 | 5 |
| How does the D-10 compare (feature wise) with the D77? What does
it do? I purchased a D77 a few months ago, I hope I'm not sorry
I didn't wait.

| The D-77 is the D-7 with FM tuner, right? Well, the D-10 has no
tuner (though it seems clear Sony plans one someday), the D-10
has an optional remote control, is smaller, has more resistance
to vibration and has 2X oversampling and the UniLinear Converter.
In the fast-moving world of CD players, like computers, it's madness
to wait to see what comes next. You will be always waiting and
never getting any enjoyment. I bought a D-5 two years ago. Should
I have waited for the D-7, or the D-10? Heck, no... I got two
years of CD pleasure out of it and have retired it into true
portable status, replacing it with a CDP-510.
So stop worrying, enjoy your D-77 to the hilt, and know that when
the time comes, you can buy the latest whizzy D-276 with the built-in
3D television and the no-headphones circuit that transmits the sound
directly to your brain. :-)

646.6 | Remote for D-100 yep | UNTADA::TSCBS | Bazzoo� | Fri Oct 09 1987 09:34 | 20 |

Yep, I have a D-10 and the remote unit. Glad I got the remote unit. At
home I always plug the remote in and put the hold switch on. You get
much better response to vibrations that way but can still use player
through the controls on the remote (putting the hold switch on turns
off the controls on the player). The remote allows you to use all the
functions except displaying time remaining and programming the unit to
play a set sequence of songs. It also allows you to go to a track
directly by a key. If you you use the remote and have the player
running off the battery pack it appears to flatten it much more
quickly, I presume the reciever uses some of the power?
My choice, get a remote.
By the way the D-10 can now be brought with a tuner and there is a new
saucer looking player (I think called a D-600) for the car. Has a lot
of builtins for getting rid of those vibrations in a car.

646.7 | D-10 | DICKNS::MACDONALD | WA1OMM Listening 224.28 | Fri Oct 09 1987 15:45 | 3 |
| The D-10 is no longer on display at lechmere. Does that mean it
is being replaced by something new? How long does that flat pack
battery provide voltage to theplayer?

Don't know about a replacement, but the battery is supposed to last
4.5 hours after an 8 hour recharge. I've certainly played several
CD's on battery without running out of steam.
BTW the battery is a sealed lead-acid unit and good for about 200
charges (according to SONY). Unlike NiCad it doesn't like to be
flattened an they suggest that you keep it at full charge as much
as possible.

646.9 | I like mine... | RSTS32::DBMILLER | Cecil B D'Miller, the Esoteric | Fri Apr 22 1988 15:28 | 14 |
| I just bought a D-10 for use at work. It works great. It's by
far the most resistance to skips of all the portables I've tried.
Re .1 (.2?) I don't remember seeing anything about the unit having
2x oversampling. Are you sure? Where is it documented?
A freind at work has a D-7 and we did a brief comparison. The D-10
seemed to be a little `crisper' sounding than his D-7. Also, the
D-10 plus the BP-100 battery pack was the same height as the D-7
without any pack. His D-7 came with the BP-200 which apparently
lasts half as long as the BP-100.
