It works.:
Not much to say here at all: 1. It is well-priced. (When I got it for [...] bucks from Amazon, not the [...] it is now that I write this...)
2. It works. Not much else. I use it to do old school demo tape recordings and it has worked fine. Not too bulky or anything at all.
MY SONY TCM-929 RECORDER:
THIS TURNED OUT TO BE A GREAT LITTLE RECORDER FOR JUST WHAT WE NEEDED. WHEN I SAW THE PICTURE OF THE SONY RECORDER IT LOOKED JUST LIKE THE GOOD OLD RELIABLE ONES WE USED TO HAVE 20 OR 30 YEARS AGO AND I DIDN'T THINK I COULD FIND ANYTHING LIKE THAT IN THE STORES, SO I WENT ON LINE AND FOUND EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED. WE ATTEND A BIBLE STUDY AND MY HUSBAND WOULD TRY TO WRITE D0WN WHAT WAS BEING SAID AND IT WAS HARD TO WRITE AND CONCENTRATE ON OUR TEACHER.

portable cassette player:
I wanted something easy to operate, portable and reliable. I still have a lot of cassette tapes I like to listen to. I know the quality is not as good as a CD but I still have them! This sony player is perfect, fits the bill. I recommend it.
Cassette Player/Recorder:
This a great little player/ recorder. Good sound. I have a bunch of older tapes I wanted to hear and this is just the ticket. One thing, I wish they would have made the buttons EASIER to see and read...The buttons all look the same.., so be careful. I accidently hit both play and record buttons at the same time and erased a portion of a tape.
Bummer..
