Is that tape in there even real…? That sort-of-article sounds like it's merely a bluetooth speaker/radio in the shape of a boombox with storage...
The last prerecorded used cassettes I "bought" (technically got them gifted) were ELO's Out of the Blue and Time. Both are really well kept and...
Thank you for sharing @walkman archive ! A well written article I couldn't disagree with.
@Longman Looking at the differences between the writing style (very likely still the same person), I guess there was some time between these. His...
Killers is a band by Paul Andrews, also known as Paul Di'Anno. If I recall correctly he was Iron Maiden's first vocalist for I believe two albums...
Thanks a ton for making this video! :D I'll definitely link it to some people who wondered about cassettes either because they never made proper...
Fair enough @Mister X , maybe I'm just unfortunate that stores are ditching tapes around here. I did indeed see some (cheap?) portable tape radios...
Long post ahead. Thanks for linking @Longman , interesting read in a way. But my feelings about it are pretty ambivalent to be honest. There are...

As for the jack, take a look at the symbol next to it. If it's not just for headphones, there'll be a combi-icon/headset. My laptop (a ThinkPad...
Alright, small update: I reserved it and will purchase it on friday. No remote. I'll take the risk. I've seen one can get replica remotes for as...
Well, I've actually considered making backups of some tapes that way, but I guess one more step in the process won't be a big problem either way....
Ah snap, you're right @HWTest , it does have SCMS. I checked the manual. Guess I mixed up dates, 92 introduced and not 95. No idea why I had 95 in...
Hope this is the right forum section, technically it is a cassette deck after all. :) And yup, DAT again! A Sony DTC-690 DAT deck theoretically...
Saw an interesting, visually appealing fix to the battery hatch issue this model often suffers from: [IMG] I mean, it looks pretty fine,...
Of those I purchased/own: Both of my Sony WM-2091 cassette walkmans, which isn't really that bad. Visually they're great, though one has a broken...
