MD-P10

Here are some photographs of Onkyo's first venture into the portable MD market.

The MD-P10 comes in two colours - silver and a rather dull blue/grey. This is an MD-ST501 in Onkyo clothing.

As small as the MS-ST501 - which is small.

The machine includes the single-shot random playback feature - it plays all tracks, in random order, once, then shuts down. The machine also has an optional autoplay mode (Only when using the internal battery for some reason). When you insert the disk, play starts immediately.

40 seconds of anti-shock memory, and has the 24-bit ATRAC.

A back-lit "skeleton type" LCD remote control. (See-through).
