Great Unit if You're Lucky--and I was!

by Alatar , Jul 22 '01
Pros: Great sound, slot-in loading, pretty easy to use
Cons: Rather large and heavy, risk of UTOC error if you're unlucky with it
The Sharp MD-MS702MK portable minidisc recorder provokes strong reaction from the MD user community. For some, it symbolizes the worst in Sharp MD recorder design, due to the unforgiveably high number of UTOC errors that have prematurely ended the lives ...

Good machine

by wmacblue , Sep 28 '01
Pros: Fully adjustable recording levels
Cons: Twiddly menu-driven editing
As a professional classical musician, decent recording equipment is essential. I have used this unit to record anything from lessons and rehearsals to demos, and it has consistently performed well since I bought it 2 years ago.

I chose this...

Sharp's MD-MS702 falls apart at the seams

by lpret , Dec 28 '00
Pros: It plays MiniDiscs, It comes with a decent set of headphones
Cons: Poor layout, Low-quality design
I was looking for a portable music device and I couldn't decide on either an MP3 player or a CDplayer. When I traveled to Japan I saw all these people with minidisc players and I fell in love. I hurried home and bought this Sharp and was amazed by it's...

The best value of the Minidisk crowd

by asinine96 , Dec 22 '00
Pros: Loading Mechanism, Remote, Ease of use
Cons: Headphones, Remote got scratched.
About 2 years ago I started getting intrigued with the Minidisk technology. So, I started shopping around, and found the 702 model to be the best for the money. I was very happy with its ease of use and the superior material used in its construction....

Hard to fault

by yhwman , Feb 11 '01
Pros: Small, good quality, well specced
Cons: Some other MD's are less high
This is one fine, fine piece of kit. I got it a couple of years ago in a sale for £150 and it’s been faultless. I did a sound engineering course at night school during my A-Levels (Thats the bit just before uni folks) and this device was a huge help. At...

The Future is Here

by TampaJoe , Apr 04 '00
Pros: Size, Rewriteable, inexspensive
Cons: slow recording, track handling
The Sharp MiniDisc gives you great audio quality and makes it easy to record MP3s by using digital or analogue recording. Please note that MP3s are not stored as MP3s on your MiniDisc, but as ordinary audio tracks. A MiniDisc records in real-time, so...

Best Value in Player/Recorder

by dynaryder , Aug 24 '00
Pros: Functions,sound,price.
Cons: Size.
I've had my 702 for a year now,and have zero complaints. I had originally purchased a Sony home deck/player bundle and wanted a portable recorder as well. After finding the 702 to be the cheapest,I decided to go with it since I've always had good luck...

Great Minidisc Device.. Super Bargain!

by x-files , Dec 27 '99
Pros: Excellent Price, Durable, Great Sound Quality, On-the-fly level set
Cons: Thicker than other minidisc portable devices
For someone that won't stand for the quality of a cassette portable and would like to record live events, the Sharp MD-MS702 is a very affordable, functionally powerful recording device that will give them a fair chance of getting into the portable...

Not So Sharp

by maclaurin , Oct 06 '99
Pros: Good sound, cheap price
Cons: Poor Customer Service, no ESP, costly extras
I bought a Sharp 702 in September 1998 and this last summer I returned it for a Sony MZ-R50.
While the price of the Sharp may have be better than most Mini Disc players at the time, I bought it out of the box from Circuit City for $240, which was...

Oldie but Goodie

by zedorzee , Jul 17 '00
Pros: Very inexpensive used, great sound quality, built to last.
Cons: Larger than most modern MD recorders, but still quite tiny. Some devices develop the infamous TOC error.
The 702 was released a few years ago, and although it may not be the smallest or lightest minidisc recorder out there, it works well and can be had for very little money.

I bought mine two years ago, and only recently upgraded to an Aiwa...

MD-MS702, an great value

by stuffman , Jul 05 '00
Pros: Great sound, small size, easy to use, battery life is long.
Cons: Removing the battery erases any service mode settings, but you're not really supposed to change the settings anyway! ;)
About two years ago, a friend purchased a minidisc player for his personal audio needs. I remember going to the Sony outlet stores and seeing demos of this technology, but the price was always a prohibitive issue. He purchased a stand-alone component...

Great Value

by kapper22 , Oct 13 '00
Pros: Inexpensive, Functional
Cons: A Little Bulky
The MD-MS-702 is a great entry level portable recorder. I have used it to record live shows, in my car, at the gym, hooked to my stereo and my computer. It was very inexpensive when I bought it, but it never disappointed me at all. It is a popular...

Sharp in some ways, dull in others

by JonahVT , Aug 05 '00
Pros: Plays and records MiniDiscs without too much hassle. Great for long car rides, jogging, and various other activities.
Cons: Possible mechanical problems, scratched plastic, less than CD quality.
The Sharp MD-MS702 was my first encounter with the world of MiniDisc. I needed a way to make my MP3s portable, without the limitations of an MP3 player's memory. The ability to rewrite MiniDiscs almost endlessly was a huge selling point for me. Never...

The Ultimate Portable MP3 device

by deltagrp , Sep 09 '99
Pros: Cheap media, rechargeable battery
Cons: No carrying strap, rarely skips
I was considering purchasing a Diamond RIO to take my MP3s with me when I hit the gym, but I decided upon the Sharp MS702 instead, for a number of reasons.

+ First is the price-- While the $150 price tag ($200-$50 rebate) is a bit higher than...

VERY POOR EJECT!!!!!!!!!

by right , Jan 26 '00
Pros: Good looking
Cons: Eject doesn't function properly after about a year for me.
I have recently sold the MD-MS702. The operation is okay but after about a year of regular operation, the eject might fail. The lever won't pull down and you won't be able to get your MD out. One way that I figured out how to get the MD out is by...
