The Sharp MD-MT 866 H is a portable MiniDisc recorder first released in September 2000. It features a compact design with dimensions of 78.9 x 72.0 x 19.5 mm and weighs approximately 137 grams with the battery installed. The MD-MT 866 H employs a semiconductor laser for non-contact optical reading and utilizes ATRAC 24-bit encoding for recording audio. The device supports a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz, with the ability to convert 32 kHz and 48 kHz recordings to 44.1 kHz. Designed for convenience, it includes a rechargeable nickel-metal hydride battery which enables around 6.5 hours of recording or 12 hours of playback on a single charge. Using an additional external AA battery or the battery case, it can extend recording time to approximately 15.5 hours and playback to 30 hours. The device offers a 3.5mm line input and microphone input, as well as a 3.5mm headphone output. Its features also include a digital/analog compatible recording function, random playback modes, and a 'W Shuttle Key' for easy navigation and track editing. The MD-MT 866 H was praised for its sound quality, providing clear audio with options for bass enhancement. Notably, the unit came equipped with a charging stand that allows for easy recharging similar to that of modern mobile devices. Variants of the device include different colors such as silver, blue, and pink, with specific models supporting Korean character displays.
