Verkaufe aus meiner Sammlung einen voll funktionsfähigen Sony MZ-1 Minidiscplayer.
Dabei ist noch die Originaltasche, ein Originalaccu sowie das originale Netzteil.
Der Accu läßt sich nicht mehr laden. Es gibt neue Accus dafür zu kaufen und es gibt auch Umbauanleitungen für den alten Accu.
Was habe ich alles getestet: Disc einlegen sowie auswerfen, Disc abspielen, Titel vor- und zurück, Disc aufnehmen, Lautstärkeregelung, Bassboost, Resume, Hold, …
Alles funktioniert wie am ersten Tag.

The Sony MZ-1 is the historic “Goldstar” that launched MiniDisc, but its asking price of €370 is ambitious compared to the typical used market. Based on 1,474 recent EUR listings, the median sits at €103 while the 75th percentile is only €206; this listing exceeds the top 25% of prices by a wide margin.
Despite the steep cost, the MZ-1 remains a cult icon for introducing instant digital editing and portable playback to the format. This specific lot offers meaningful upside by including the original case, battery, and power supply, which are often missing from vintage units. However, unless you prioritize owning the absolute first MiniDisc recorder in complete original-owner condition, the price feels heavy for a bulky 1992 device that lacks modern features like HiMD or USB output.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sony emerged from the ruins of post-World War II Japan, founded on May 7, 1946, by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K. in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district. Starting with radio repairs and Japan's first magnetic tape recorder, the duo secured transistor licensing from Bell Labs, pioneering the TR-55 transistor radio in 1955. Renamed Sony Corporation in 1958—from the Latin "sonus" for sound—the brand symbolized Japan's ascent from cheap imitations to innovative leadership, fueled by Ibuka's engineering prowess and Morita's global marketing vision.
Sony's hi-fi legacy spans headphones, amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark formats like the Compact Disc in 1982 and Blu-ray. Iconic products include the Walkman for portable audio revolution and Trinitron televisions, blending consumer accessibility with cutting-edge tech. Today, offerings like the Signature Series headphones and ES amplifiers target discerning listeners seeking refined soundstaging and dynamic range.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end powerhouse, Sony commands respect among knowledgeable buyers for blending mass-market reliability with premium performance, outpacing many pure audiophile brands in innovation and value. Far from vintage relic or niche boutique, it dominates with forward-thinking engineering, holding strong market share in headphones and streaming ecosystems.
