Perfect fit for my portable player

These regular offset tapes are great for the music in my portable cassette player. This is an old Sanyo player from 1985 without special tape switches (CrO2/Metal). Music sounds clear and bright with very little noise. I record cassettes old school style, recording from vinyl through a receiver onto a two-cassette Onkyo deck. Ribbon Type Plain; Noise Reduction OFF The meter records peak levels that dance right at 0 dB. Perfect every time.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Music To My Ears - Data Cassettes

When I wanted to buy 60 minute cassettes to play during my 30 minute sessions on a special medical pump. I've used 90 minute recordings with longer ones, but these recordings allowed me to play one side per session and it worked great. Having ordered Maxell 90 minute tapes I went with this brand of these shorter tapes and have been very happy with the end results. The recording was crisp and each cassette was filled and played many times with no problems. Will definitely order another packโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • So Far So Good

Excellent tapes. Delivery packaging sucks

The tapes worked great, but because of the packaging I have to give a bad rating. When I opened the Amazon package I was shocked to find that the Maxell package was open and one of the cartridges was already open with a cracked casing. Luckily there doesn't seem to be a record. Somewhere in transit someone must have opened it up and wanted to try one of the bands, then put it back in their bag before shipping. I paid so much for it and got an item that was open?! The article itself isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • handy article
Cons
  • empty

Mostly reliable - but sort of an endangered species

I couldn't find a cassette player for Revain - my favorite was Sony. I didn't have to give my Sony to anyone who wanted to listen to my tape recordings of certain shows. Tried others but had to go back. And maybe Colby would have worked, but the tape got stuck inside. They were understanding and gave me a full refund - I think they were able to tell if the cartridge was defective or not. From time to time I look to Revain for a tape recorder due to my preference for new technology cartridges.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Works great with vintage cassette recorder/player

I bought these tapes for my vintage Sony cassette recorder/player that I bought for my dad off eBay. I tested one of the tapes and the clarity was fantastic. Dad can't handle the new little digital recorders because they're too small and too complicated. Being able to find cassette tapes that fit an old cassette player has been incredibly helpful and Dad can easily keep multiple records to track his progress. I was really surprised how many types of ribbons are still available. Dad can now useโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Non-automatic

Cassette tapes are going to disappear soon. The cassette is still good for dictation, but the music seems to have transitioned to MP3 format. I'm dictating three books, hey. I've found that writing and putting together interesting, effective material is impossible for me. I can write or compose, I can't do both at the same time. As such, I am autistic to explain myself with the passion that makes my work readable and enjoyable. I need to be freed from the keyboard. . I just let my passion runโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure
