Enter a name/title through the remote control easier than in the case of successors, because each letter has a button
based on MDS-500, the previous model, but has a coaxial digital output, it is also. Better analog recordings than JE-500 due to new A/D converter (vote of stereo, see below)
There is a power button (slider) on the back of the device. This allows the device to be turned off completely (as with the JE-700 and JE 500). After the MD deck has been switched off for a long time, one should not forget this...
Sony MDS-310 EACH (without digital output/input and headphone output)
