- klodolph 5y agoEven though you can buy it new, you will still have to do maintenance. A clean capstan will become a dirty capstan. $600 is also quite expensive. For that much money, I can easily get a working reel-to-reel tape machine, plus a supply of media.
- Doxin 5y agoI would love to buy a modern portable cassette player, but it seems that all of them use the exact same terrible cassette mechanism on the inside, leading to poor quality. If someone can point me somewhere that's still producing quality portable cassette decks that would be grand.
