Sony Walkman Cassette Player WM-EX5 – (50th Anniversary Model). Fully Operational Serial No. This Sony Walkman is in like new condition but may have some very small marks as seen in photos (you will need to look hard). All buttons are present and work as they should, the battery compartment is clean, the volume raises/lowers without crackle and is fully operational functioning as intended. The WM-EX5 was a special edition model released to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the foundation of what would become the Sony Corporation by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita. Item is located in the Preston PR5 area and you are more than welcome to view/collect item. These are great little bits of wonderful vintage retro history you can cherish for hopefully many more years. YouTube Video Of This Unit In Operation. Sony Walkman Cassette Player WM-EX5 – (50th Anniversary) SN: 516758. Video will open in a new window. Using the mobile app? This unit sounds great and has Very Little Wow and Flutter (see information below). This is overall this is in brilliant visual and working condition. This WM-EX5 has its original serial matched box and the following are included in the box. Items included are as follows. Sony Walkman Cassette Player WM-EX5 (The Unit itself). Original Remote Control and Earphones – (MDR-ED136, RM-WM71EL). Original unit care cleaning cloth. Original rechargeable Gum Stick Battery and holder. This came with the unit in 1996, so although original I would advise using a new one. Original Battery Charger (BC-7S). Original headphone warning document. Refurbishment Work Completed On This Unit is as follows. All Internal dirt or dust removed and cleaned. New Idlers fitted were needed. New Pinch Rollers fitted or cleaned were needed. Capstan Cleaned and checked. Re-oiled / Greased Were required. Re-align the Play head were required (Azimuth). Demagnetized Play Back Head and Tape Path. Speed Set with lab reference tape and oscilloscope. Full External sanitize and clean. All Functions checked were possible. Please Note: The unit is fully operational and functions as intended. Everything that is shown in pictures is what it comes with and shows its condition, I have tried to describe the item to the best of my ability. Wow and Flutter: This is the waver in a reproduced tone or group of tones that is caused by irregularities in the tape drive speed during recording, duplication, or playing. For example, a change in the angular velocity of the capstan, or dragging of the tape audio cassette shell. The terms “wow and flutter” are often referred to together, flutter being a higher-rate version of wow. There are many factors that can increase wow and flutter mainly from age and use, this can be dirty or dry moving parts of the unit, including a dirty capstan, polished capstan, capstan bearings, dirty pinch roller/s, dirty head and dirty motor wheel after a belt change. A Worn belt, belt size, quality and pinch roller issue are also the main factors of wow and flutter. All these potential causes are meticulously checked during my refurbishments. Deformations in the cassette compartment can also be a cause, but this is obviously down to which cassette you use and its quality, I always advise a full REW and FF of an older tape before playing, which can help. We will attempt to respond to you within 24 hours and do our best to help you out! Please check out my feedback. We will take responsibility for the costs of your return only in the UK and only in the highly unlikely case where the item has a defect. In all other cases, we will not be responsible for the costs incurred for returning ordered items. I sell are obviously old and have been used by other people so you should expect some form of wear and tear. I try my very best to give an accurate description of each item and produce clear photos. Any major imperfections will be stated. Please read descriptions and study the pictures carefully to satisfy yourself that the item is up to your expectation. Batteries, power supplies, headphones, user instructions and original accessories are not included in the sale unless specifically indicated in the description or pictures. The YouTube video contains real footage and direct sound from these units, so you can hear exactly how they sound and operate. The recorded sound is a direct feed into a DLSR camera which has an auto record level adjustment, so on REW and FF or between tracks the record level increases to maximum, therefore the background hiss will be amplified to maximum. In my later video’s I use a manual adjustment therefore the sound reproduction within the blank areas are far more natural sounding. YouTube video’s and the thumbnail images of the units operating may include items not included in the sale, see the main images and description for confirmation. Please be aware that any Power Supply you may use must be researched, I recommend you power the unit with batteries first. Any power supply used on this item must be the correct voltage type and polarity. Your satisfaction is our number one goal. Thank You In Advance!
