Hi!

        I'm the happy owner now of a Sharp MS-722. All other MD equipment
I have is Sony. But this time I saw very clear that Sony wasn't
competitive in this area; first, slot-in mechanism is far more robust than
the clam-shell one, second battery life can't compare. I'm also very fond
of Sony pointless attitude, marketing lies, and prepotent behaviour.

        I read a lot of reviews of almost every portable unit I came
across. People cleared out that the typical 7xx problems (TOC problems,
etc) were only on earlier models.

        The only unexpected mis-feature I have found is the headphones
sound; even when people said sharps sound greatly, i found the headphones
to have a very harsh and unpleasant sound. Mids are unsanely boosted, and
I (I know that is a very subjective area) don't like that at all. Is the
only drawback I found on the sharp. I hate earbuds commonly found on other
portables, so I don't mind too much, sony's would be worse.

        Here's were my question comes: Sharp headphones are 32 Ohm, I have
an old walkman Aiwa headphones whose sound I like too much (in fact i
tried lots of walkmans back then to find the better sounding ones). But
they're 200 Ohm. 

        My electronic knowledge have some dust on top, and I was wondering
if the battery life will be shorter. My mind says that as impedance is
higher, AC current *voltage* will actually be higher, and battery life
will be shorter. Higher impedance:  higher energy loss also... 

        could anyone clear that? I'm lost...

        greets,
