Boxed Sony Walkman TPS-L2 Complete with Accessories! This really is a privilege to own – even if it is only for a short while – here’s a Brand New TPS-L2 that has sat in it’s box for 40 years waiting to come to life again. For the uninitiated, this is the very first Walkman produced by Sony in 1979 – actually when they introduced it it had a number of different names, in Asia it was the Walkman, but. In the USA it was the SoundAbout, in the UK the Stowaway and in Sweden the Freestyle – so many were bought in Japan by foreign businessmen that they soon adopted “Walkman” across all markets. Anyway, here it is, in new condition, complete with it’s accessories, including the all important MDR3 headphones still in it’s original box – it really doesn’t get any better than this. As with all my refurbished Walkmans you don’t have to take my work for how good they sound because I provide you with a video so you can hear for yourself. I’m not a professional sound engineer – I feed the output from the walkman into the mic input on my Canon DSLR. These are complex analogue machines in a digital world – the old belt residue must be completely and meticulously removed – otherwise the new belt will wobble causing wow and flutter. Here’s a brand new Sony Walkman TPS-L2 that’s been hidden away in it’s box for 40 years. The box is in lovely condition, a few crease marks on the edges and a tiny tear in the front. The polystyrene insert is mint. The Walkman has no signs of use – there are a few marks on the sides of the plastic button surround – from sitting in it’s case for 40 years – but is otherwise mint. It has been refurbished, belts changed, head and roller cleaned and the volume potentiometers cleaned. So it plays perfectly, in stereo, at the right speed without wow or flutter. It rewinds and fastforwards as it should. The weird hotline mic works and the volume adjusts evenly without dropout. The case is like new. The headphones are pristine and work perfectly and I’ve added new orange foams. I have 10 years experience refurbishing 100’s of Walkmans! You get what you pay for – there won’t be any disappointment when it arrives – it will work as described! If it IS as described and you change your mind – relist it yourself and feel free to reuse my Listing, Pictures and Video Link – you’ll probably make a profit! I’m not an audio engineer which is why I include a video so you can hear it play and judge for yourself. I do not extensively test these over periods of hours/days – I don’t have the time. My only guarantee is that it should work as you see in the video when it arrives. All items will be bubble wrapped and dispatched in a rigid cardboard box to ensure that they reach you without any damage in transit. See my other auctions for loads more cool Sony Walkmans.
