====== Sony MDX-C150 ======

{{page>equipment:infobox_template}}

There is a MDX-C150RDS variation, RDS standing for [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Data_System| Radio Data System]] allowing the unit to decode data from FM such as station names and track info.

Features: ATRAC 2. Wired remote.
Weird negatives (compared to the original [[equipment:sony:auto:mdx-u1| MDX-U1 unit]]):

  *     Can't label radio stations
  *     Only 10 character display
  *     Only 1 pre-amp output
  *     Track info doesn't scroll by default 

Positives (compared to the original MDX-U1 unit)

  *     Better display
  *     LOUDness option
  *     Better look
  *     Larger preset buttons 

4 x 8 watts according to stereo review.. The RDS model claims 4 x 22 watts.

Release date on minidisc.org is incorrect. It is currently estimated based on the stereo review magazine date but even that is likely later than it's actual release date.

Optical Pickup: KMS-193A/J-N\\
