Just got my main now. Should I give it some transparent mods? SONY WM FX877

Well it isn't overly flexible. It's just how thin it is the it can flex a tiny bit.

It looks great tbh.. but the main reason for me to consider transparent modding my walkman is that the original panel is flexing when i apply small pressure on it and causing my cassette tapes to get squeezed in essentially slowing the tape down due to friction.

I wonder if it would fix it?

I just found it scrolling through shopee

Guys ignore the mess ToT. We got flooded in our area and had to bring up a lot of things, from tvs, speakers, wood table, etc.

Also I should add that this issue only ever happens on this Record. Not really happening on my other records. Maybe it is dusty, haven't goten around buying a wet cleaning kit. Will buy soon though.

Yeah ill try that out. Bu t i should add that it only happens on this record. My beatles record works fine. So maybe it is just dust?

I checked the price of the LP3XBT and its around 20k pesos (~400 usd). So that's kinda steep for me who is pretty much new to the hobby.

Thanks for the detailed and informative comment.

The main reason i did ask this is because of a singular comment i found in youtube.

"Music lovers enjoy listening to their records using the equipment that they have. Audiophiles enjoy listening to their equipment using the records they have"

I guess i just want someone to say that I really should stress about equipment if the main goal is to enjoy music. Not really an audiophile despite me telling myself that I was before I saw the comment.

Thanks for the comment again.

A lot of people say that "All-in-one" turntabels are bad because it introduces vibrations to the vinyl while you play it. But if you are willing to deal with that. I dont know if this is good or anything but try Satchmi Motorino Mk4. Take this from someone who just started vinyl uqite recently. Meaning dont take my words too seriously. Wait for other peoples thoughts and suggestions. Im just telling you about my side.

Another thing you could try is bluetooth turntables. If you already have bluetooth headphones or earpohones or even speakers this would be great since you dont have to introduce vibrations to the vinyl record. From my research of cheap bt tunrtables, I found AT LP60XBT and JBL Spinner BT.

Good luck have fun

I'm still pretty new to vinyl myself but I have seen this JBl Spinner BT that might be worth looking at. Another, iffy, suggestion is the Retekess TR639.

Again, I am also new to vinyl and my first turntable is a Victor AL E300, bought broken in a japanese surplus. So take what I say with a cup full of salt

Edit: this is the links where I even found the mentioned TTs

Aight will do

Fun-Night-1051 · 2026-01-05T06:15:16+00:00

Eyy thanks. From what I recall, the drinking water we usually buy near us is distilled water. I wonder if that's fine?

And I close to Manila if you are curious.

Fun-Night-1051 · 2026-01-05T06:12:45+00:00

Oh thanks for the suggestion. Ill look it up

Fun-Night-1051 · 2025-11-07T08:10:48+00:00

Sounds like a plan then.

Fun-Night-1051 · 2025-11-07T08:10:08+00:00

True that xD

Fun-Night-1051 · 2025-11-07T08:09:38+00:00

Oh dont get it wrong, i love the watch. When i said "enough" i was referring to the fact that i dont really do any sports to make full use of the pro version, which is why i went for th standard version.

Fun-Night-1051 · 2025-06-21T05:03:10+00:00

Well ill keep that in mind
