They are in MINT CONDITION. They have been used 6 times total since I purchased them brand new from Marc Nutter over at SonicSense. Never used around smoke or rain. I purchased them in the protective polymer tubing. In addition I am including the windscreens and static mounts at no additional charge. Serious offers only please. Thank you. Peace.

I'm wondering how experienced M-1 users deal with its battery situation. Should I buy a backup set of rechargeables? Are they readily available from Sony or do I need to get OEMs? Have you ever been burned by a bad recharge. I much prefer the alkaline battery situation with the D-8. I can put a fresh set of batteries in and be assured that they are good. Thanks, Charlie ------------------------------ From: Darryl Deyerle Subject: Re: ZA2 Upbit help Please! Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2001 06:51:30 -0800 This is probably stuff you've already gone through, but just in case... check your autoexec.bat on the DOS boot disk you're using. It should look something like: SET ZA2=C: C:\ZA2\UPBIT C:\ZA2\XZA2RDX3 C:\ZA2\UPSIM C:\ZA2\DSPOSX2 SET PATH=C:\ZA2;%PATH% This assumes that the ZA2.INI file is in the C root directory (C:\) and all the other ZA2 files installed with your initial setup are in the C:\ZA2 directory. Obviously, the autoexec.bat would have to be modified appropriately if the files were in different directories. There is a detailed section in the manual on proper DOS set-up and troubleshooting. I'd suggest you go over that again if you haven't already. If you need another copy of the ZA2 manual, go to: http://www.zefiro.com/za2manr8.zip If you need a new copy of the installation files, go to: http://www.zefiro.com/disk8.zip Take care, Darryl ------------------------------ From: "..." Subject: how much for a 2nd h core sounds binaural mics set? Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2001 15:50:21 +0000 Hiya, Could anyone tell me what a set of second hand core sounds binaural mics would be worth? I know someone who is selling them, and I am interested in buying but I wouldn't know what would be a reasonable price offer. It is the mic set plus the battery box with the switchable bass roll-off filter as on http://www.core-sound.com/mics.html and the seller bought them slightly over a year ago. Thanks in advance for your advice, ------------------------------ From: "Kevin Hatton" Subject: FS: Beyerdynamic mv-100 preamp Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2001 11:24:00 -0500 Hello all, I recently purchased this and am quickly upgrading to a new preamp so this unit needs to go. This preamp comes with 24V external battery source that runs a long time (batteries are also very small). Any other questions about this preamp give a holler to kevin_hatton@hotmail.com Please make me a serious offer. I don't remember offhand how much I paid but I will find out and make sure that you get a good deal.

Once my wife had the batteries in her purse and when it came time to swap she somehow handed me one charged and one discharged. I should have noticed but was moving too fast in dim lighting. Another time, a few minutes into a show with freshly charged batteries, one of them gave a pop and a sizzle and died-- some kind of internal short, I suppose. I was mad, but probably should just be thankful my D100 wasn't fried. -- Mark Mayhle mark@mayhle.com ------------------------------ From: John Petroskas Subject: extras for trade or B&P Date: 11 Nov 2001 12:39:29 EST Hi all - = I've got the following DAT extras for trade or B&P: Chris Smither 1-22-2000 (DSBD) 1x60m Maxell Dead 12-1-71 (set IIp, SBD) 1x60m Maxell WSP 10-2-98 (AKG 463>mv100>DAP1) 1x90m Sony WSP 7-9-99 (AKG 482>Oade m148>DAP1) 2x60m Sony I also have the following .shn disks for trade or B&P: DMB 7-31-92 (DSBD) and Dave & Tim 3-7-99 (DAUD) 3 cds WSP 10-12-01 (Neumann km184s>V2>SBM1>DAP1) 2 cds WSP 10-13-01 (Neumann km184s>V2>SBM1>DAP1) 2 cds Whoever wants 'em, let me know!

I have a mac beige G3 running and EZ quest 16X burner w/ firewire using Toast lite 5.1. I keep getting these snap/crackle/pops at every speed I burn CD's at. Anyone know how to rememdy this problem and what is causing it? Jagjit ------------------------------ From: CC Subject: Plextor Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2001 11:53:19 -0800 My advice is to go to CNET's shopper.com and run a search for Plextor. They will show results from several different vendors that you can buy from. Bought my Plextor by researching this way and got a great price from a good outfit.

Thx, CE ------------------------------ From: Andrew Nemeth Subject: FS: Core Sound Bin mics, Shure FP11 Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2001 08:54:43 +1100 I'm cleaning out the cupboard and have two audio items which I no longer use: o Core Sound binaural mics (standard battery box) o Shure FP11 mono mic pre-amp (no phantom but up to +84 dB gain!) Both of these use a standard 9V cell for power. Both are in pretty good condition (not mint, but not beaten up either!) and are available for sale separately. Prices - make a reasonable offer! Allow for insured airmail shipping from Australia (where I am located).

I just found out that Sony has closed down its Bay Area drop off service center. They now want everyone to mail in the equipment. What does everyone think of their service? Is there a better place to take/send a portable dat deck? If so, please e-mail me off-list. Also, since I'm writing, I'm looking to get a multi-format dvd player and was hoping someone on this list might have a recommendation...or at least be able to point me in the right direction.

Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2001 20:04:31 -0600 Recently I've had reason to record phone conversations, or answering machine messages, played over the phone line. Taping my stealth mics to the receiver worked, but leaves A LOT to be desired. I have a little monaural suction cup mic, but it's ineffective (maybe I'm using it wrong). Radio shack makes a little 'wart' that has a miniplug audio output and a submini plug on/off switcher, but I got this enormous hum. How are people recording phone conversations? I know radio stations use a more sophisticated processor, but is there anybody out there who has a schematic for something I could build? Hoping, Jonathan ------------------------------ From: "Steve Randolph" Subject: Steve Kimock Band Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2001 22:22:59 -0500 Did anyone tape the show in Pittsburgh on 11/8/01? My recent additons recorded with Schoeps mics are: G' Mule, 10/7/01, Donna the Buffalo,11/3/01 and Oysterhead, 11/6/01.
