The Sony MZ-N10 is still one of the coolest models in the MiniDisc universe, IMHO. It's got a great 3-line display and jog knob on the body that mean you can operate it easily without a remote. Now if only it was backlit...
You may have seen my other MZ-N10 videos including accessing the Service Menu and replacing the old Lithium-ion battery.
It was in pretty good shape outside of the scuffed knob plate and interestingly enough, the battery could hold a bit of charge... There was an unsightly gap even with the lid closed which led me to figure out what was wrong and how to fix it...
Oh yeah, and there was a mysterious "note" left inside which I don't think could have happened by accident!
Check out the video to see an uncommon fix!
