Walkman Cassette Player, Portable Stereo Playback, Supports External Mic and Earphone Port

Great little cassette player. Sound quality was surprisingly superb. Got my fix of nostalgia and got a functional product out of it. It does feel like it would shatter into a million pieces if dropped though, so caution is advised.

This is so great and the mic works well. My kids are loving this so much to record and replay things on. It’s larger for a cassette player and doesn’t have a strap or clip. But the sound quality is good.

Arrived well packed and protected, however clear part that shows the cassette is scratched. Otherwise looks great besides the scratch damage

I have a lot of old mixtapes that I've saved over the years, and they have music on them that I haven't heard for a long time. So I got this Tomashi tape player to hear them again. The sound is good enough -- I'm not sure the range of highs and lows is the same quality as the old Walkmans. I can listen to it with headphones, or plug it into a portable sound system/CD player with a 1/8" jack and play it through larger speakers. But not many of us have this kind of gear anymore. I'd forgotten what it was like to have a 90-minute cassette full of songs, and if you want to hear one track that's in the middle of the tape, you just have to keep fast forwarding until you find it. Those of us who are accustomed to the digital age expect more precision and instant gratification. But, I have to say, I had a lot of fun playing these old mixtapes, especially after I plugged this into a sound system. It uses two AA batteries, and there's a USB jack on it also, which I assume is to power the unit and not to port it into your computer. There's also a "Record" feature on it and a separate 1/8" jack for an external microphone. However, I tested it with three different microphones (a Clippy lavelier mic, an old iPhone headset, and a Tascam mic with a 1/8" 2-ring jack), and I can confirm that it doesn't work. I could hear that a "whoosh" sound where the recording began and ended when I played it back, but it wouldn't record my voice through the external microphone. So much for that -- I have better ways to record things, anyway. The device is made of hard plastic, and I don't think it would survive well if I accidentally dropped it. This is a niche item that meets a certain need.
