Finally, a MiniDisc Player/Recorder for the Masses

bytyscat Dec 27, 2000

Pros Good Price, Jog-Dial, Backlit Remote, User Friendly
Cons None.. Really.. There are none!
Recommended it? Yes

I bought my 722 in August 2001 off of uBid.com. I had debated a MiniDisc player vs. an MP3 player for quite awhile. I decided on MiniDisc because blank 70 minute discs only cost about $4 while 64 megs for an mp3 player costs upwards of $120 or more. Honestly, I went with the 722 because the price...

Pros Inexpensive, sturdy, good audio quality
Cons Crummy headphones included
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased my Sharp 722 in February, 2000 from buy.com and took advantage of the $50 rebate being offered from Sharp. Up to this day, I have not been disappointed with that investment. I purchased the unit to upgrade from the Sharp 702 player I'd purchased in July, 1999, which I had since sold to... Read full review »

A Step Up from its Predecessors

Pros Easy to use, jog dial, long battery life, rechargeable battery, sound quality, durable
Cons hard to find nowadays, great headphones not included
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased the Sharp MD-MS722 because my previous MD Player, the MD-MT15 had met its demise. However, using my MD-MS722 made me realize the shortcomings of my previous player.

For one, my MD-MT15 bought it while working out at the gym. The MD-MT15 has no kind of device that lets you keep... Read full review »

(Written by my 16-year-old son)
The Sharp MD-MS722. One word. WOW. It was about four months ago when I became aware of the mini disc technology. I knew right away that I needed to get one, so I began to do my homework.

I began to compare various players, sizing up features such as... Read full review »

Awesome Cheap Minidisc w/ $50 rebate!

byt13monkeys Mar 4, 2000
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros great sound, low price, easy interface
Cons heavy, bulkier than other MD recorders
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this product recently to find there was also a $50 rebate to its normal $239 price tag. Therefore the pricetag becomes a great $189, making it one of the cheapest minidisc recorders out there. However the rebate only lasts till 4/1/00 so get it soon!

With such a low price,... Read full review »

Sony MZ-R50 Over Sharp MD-MS702/722 and Sony MZ-R55

Recommended it? Yes

When I was in the market for a portable MD recorder, the two main choices that stood out for me were the Sharp MS-702 or MS-722 and the Sony MZ-R50. The MZ-R55 had not been released in the US yet. This is an excellent recorder. It has digital input with sample rate conversion (optical only,... Read full review »

Mega Performance - Mini Price!

byPlanecrazy Jul 5, 2000
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Incredible sound - Incredible price!
Cons No playback programming feature - Can't record or play MP3 files directly
Recommended it? Yes

It's rare to find products these days that deliver on their marketing promises. The Sharp MD-MS722 delivers a whole lot more! If you've avoided minidisc technology because you heard that sound quality was compromised in order to compress more sound on a smaller disc, it's time to re-evaluate that... Read full review »

Basically shoddy

Pros All the features you need
Cons I had an antfarm that lasted longer!
Recommended it? No

I've had a Sharp 722 MiniDisk unit for 21 months and it is as good as the specifications say, but I'd definitely say DO NOT BUY it.
Allowing recording from both Digital-Optical line in and also a mike jack the Sharp 722 is versatile enough to use as your first introduction to MiniDisk, but the... Read full review »

Never buy CD's Again

Pros Very portable, easy to use, great sound quality
Cons Output could use a tune-up, there are smaller models available
Recommended it? Yes

I love music, let's get that out of the way right now. Until I had purchased my minidisc player, I never left my house without my walkman (of course now I don't leave without my MD). I have shoeboxes full of tapes, some on the verge of disintegration. So when I saw that minidiscs were actually... Read full review »

MD is NOT for music

bywoodyjin Aug 9, 2000
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 4 Comments
Pros convenience,
Cons Lack of musical quality
Recommended it? No

This is my first experience with MD technology, and thus I cannot
compare this product with other MD players. Based on the fact that
this product is highly recommended, I may assume that it represents
the current status of MD technology.

First, the rumor that MD's sound quality... Read full review »
