Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

Thanks for the memory (forgot I used to own a D25!)

The early to mid 80s where the peak years of my Sony fandom ;-) Besides the D25, I owned a cassette Walkman which was the size of a cassette case, and it actually expanded a bit to hold the tape, a TCD-D3 DAT Walkman (the best-ever sounding Walkman IMO), a very fancy Betamax VCR, and of course, a Sony shortwave radio.

Seem to recall that the D25 was expensive even then, like $275. I wasn't aware of any of today's higher-end ear buds, so I just used the Sony-provided set, which had unusual rear-firing drivers, but they had a fairly lightweight sound and didn't especially impress me. Nice metal enclosure though. The proprietary lead-acid battery was kind of a pain in the butt.
