Review on High-Quality Teac TN-300SE-MB Analog Turntable In Matte Black by Jared Surabhi

Revainrating 5 out of 5

finally transferring all my old cassettes and LPs

I have boxes of old cassettes of irreplaceable personal recordings that I've been wanting to digitize. Easy to use, although there are a lot of steps, so I just wrote out a cheat sheet to keep by the unit. After 2 or 3 times, I don't need it. The tape speed is a tad fast, but not anything I can't live with. All cassette players are different. The auto track feature works about 80% but I'm satisfied with it. I LOVE being able to play my LPs. I probably won't digitize many of them since most have been remastered for CD. It has every output I could want including direct to mp3 on my computer. Speakers are just OK so plan to get some good speakers to hook up. Can input from an external source such as my digital 8-track recorder. Wish I'd gotten this sooner instead of messing with crappy thumbdrive cassette players. I did purchase a separate turntable mat.Jan. 2021 update: I still can't find anything to not like about this. I've been enjoying playing LPs again. I was going to sell or give them away, but now I'm keeping them. I am culling a few (sorry Mel Tillis).

Pros
  • Easy to use.
Cons
  • Can be affected by temperature and humidity changes

Good quality for a baby boomer. Would like to add remote speakers (wireless) but not sure how...looking into it.
