I just got a brand new Sony MDS-SP25 Minidisk unit for £10 (<$20)!

However, this is intended to be connected to a Sony component system and therefore has a ribbon cable connector for the power, in and out connections (though it does have optical for this also). This is why they are selling these so cheap. I need to find the pinout and power specifications for the power supply I need to get it working.

I've looked around the web quite a bit but found no info about the pinouts or a schematic for the device.

Anyone have any ideas or know any sites which may have schematics for consumer electronics?

Best thing you'll probably be able to do is order (pay for) a service manual. Sony, bastards that they are, doesn't even keep user manuals online.
