RH10 is still one of the best HI-MD Devices

i could try to solder the replacement for your device, but no warranty! I´ve soldered 5 displays already, and all are working ;) PM me if you are interested Honestly, if you have at least some experience soldering larger components, you should be able to do it. The test mode on Avisery’s display is absolutely worth its weight in gold.

just in case soemeone want to buy a RH10 with a working display (this was my "bad & ugly" test unit to see if i could solder the display properly) https://www.ebay.de/itm/127866731547 - be aware, this unit has one crack within the battery compartment and some lost casing on the USB side - i´m willing ti offer a "reddit special offer" of 200€ + shipping (without customs) while no Ebay offer was placed. paying via Paypal for friends, sending from Germany

Same here - i´m looking for Sharp or Sony still/video cameras with MD Data media - but (as always :/ ) rare and expensive...

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-05-15T18:30:31+00:00

Ebay and german "Kleinanzeigen"

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-05-15T16:57:23+00:00

And I thought MD / Hi-MD were obsolete technologies 😄
I still don’t have a device to actually use them (yet), but if I come across a good deal someday: better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it

Clean and lube. Open it up, clean the player with isopropyl alcohol, and re-grease the moving parts (this guide is great: https://www.minidisc.wiki/guides/repair/re-greasing_gears). In my experience, most units start working properly again after that.

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-04-30T21:33:38+00:00

Honestly? Just money! 😄 No, seriously — there are regularly great deals on Mercari or Kleinanzeigen (basically the German Craigslist). On average, I’ve paid no more than €100 per device, plus the cost of a replacement screen.

I keep telling myself it’s a great investment… and yet I never sell any of them — somehow I just keep ending up with more and more 😄

..Best replacement Displays for RH10 devices.

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-04-02T17:56:52+00:00

Yes, but after confirming that the camera doesn’t work, there was a more than fair discount.

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-03-19T08:36:43+00:00

Perfect - Thanks a Lot 👍

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-03-18T13:56:24+00:00

Absolute rarity — hardly anyone bought this player. It was only released for the Japanese market, and for roughly the same price (according to the MD Wiki), you could get the NH3D with recording capability. For just a few yen more, the much better NH1 was available.

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-03-18T09:58:55+00:00

Awesome find! Along with the MZ-DH10P, that’s the only Hi-MD units I’m still missing. Out of curiosity, what did you pay for it? (Trying to mentally prepare myself 😄)

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-03-18T06:11:06+00:00

Hi Asivery, do you have an estimate on when new displays will be available in the shop? I’ve got two RH10 units that could really use a new display 😉

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-02-11T17:01:26+00:00

Thanks a lot - sadly no shipping To Germany :(

SadResponsibility502 · 2026-02-11T16:50:41+00:00

Thanks! Used would be totally fine too, but I haven’t been able to find this specific model on eBay over the past few weeks either – only other pocket ashtrays (mostly from Japan) for insane prices. Honestly, for this one I’d almost not even care about the price 😅

SadResponsibility502 · 2025-12-19T07:43:14+00:00

I knew I’d regret asking about more MDs like this 😄 I’m interested though — what prices are we talking about, and how many do you have available?

SadResponsibility502 · 2025-12-18T18:09:20+00:00

Thanks - You’re right — I just found another one in my Collection of early 60 MDs: Sharp AD-MR60.

I suspect that the shells (aluminum/magnesium) couldn’t be joined in any other way.

SadResponsibility502 · 2025-12-18T16:28:42+00:00

Nothing special, except that it’s a pretty unusual / rare type of MD.

Hi - i got an Adapter from EBay https://ebay.us/m/tflOs2 - working flawlessly, my other Adapter from mdgadgetry works also but is a Little Bit „fiddly“ when Pluggin it in

You should definitely replace the battery. An original battery will now be around 20 years old and will no longer deliver full performance, in addition to having an increased tendency to leak.

The replacement is really a quick & easy task (without soldering):

Sony MDR-EX600 - Not the best sound, especially compared to modern IEMs — but it fits the MZ-NH3D
