Alternatively, you could make a battery adapter like this (should be easyish to do :p ) www.dse.co.nz with a large battery or series of batteries to get the correct voltage for your Walkman wired to the correct adapter plug, you wont have hum problems with that. I would recommend using alkaline cells (they last about 4 times longer than standard). Yep, that one in the first DSE link is the exact same one I bought. Thanks for the link about the battery holder, I suppose it may reduce the hum, but in that case I may as well just go back to using the batteries in the Walkman itself (which is what I previously used to do) - they never caused hum, but it was a pain to keep swapping batteries over and recharging them, that's why I bought a power adapter! |

| 793572 | 2009-07-21 12:46:00 | My point was/is that using larger (and I recommend alkaline) batteries (C or D size) would last a lot longer than the AA or AAA size you have in the Walkman, plus you will have no hum (which was your original gripe) :D. | feersumendjinn (64) | ||
