Low-quality sound ruins nostalgia trip

Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice, I can easily say this cassette player isn't worth your time or money. The sound quality is significantly worse than expected, making listening to old tapes a disappointment. The convenience of portable audio is overshadowed by the frustration of a sub-par product.

Pros
  • portable
Cons
  • low-quality sound

Review Sony Auto Reverse Walkman

This player worked well until about mid-band and then made a noise similar to a cat purring. This was with EVERY tape I used. I can't use it.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging

Revainrating 2 out of 5

lousy packaging

It broke after accidentally dropping it so I had to throw it away Buy another Sony Walkman again, the model I have is a metal case. I think that's why it still works, it's one of the early models called Awia.

Pros
  • great design
Cons
  • crumpled packaging
