High Bias Cassette tapes August 27, 2008 As Secretary of the Homeowners Association in my community I use these cassettes to tape meetings and then I write my minutes from the tapes. Every little noise and word comes through loud and clear. The cassettes are top quality.
These are excellent tapes, though hard to find. Well almost...:0) August 8, 2008 These are excellent tapes, though hard to find. If you can not find these and others drop me a line!
Great for Four Track May 15, 2008 These tapes are great for use with my four track recorder. Tape is not dead.

Maxell manufactures excellent 60 minute "XL2" cassette tapes for very good quality tape recordings of music as well as, of course, all purpose general recording. As long as you have the right kind of equipment, these tapes record the sounds of record albums, radio shows, CD-Rs, people talking and more. These tapes have 60 minutes worth of blank recording tapes on them so there are 30 blank minutes for recording on each side. The tape playback will work well in just about any tape deck including the one in your car.
The tapes allow you hours upon hours of listening enjoyment because you can record over them many times; and they take up very little room so they're easy to carry around with you.
Unfortunately, these tapes cannot produce the same quality recording reproduction as a digitalized copy would give you. This means that if, hypothetically, you were to copy a CD-R onto another CD-R instead of a Maxell "XL2" cassette tape, the quality of the sound on the CD-R copy would remain sharper and clearer with less background noise than a Maxell cassette tape or any other brand of cassette tape could give you. It's just not quite as good as a digitized CD-R recording. Moreover, cassette tapes can break if not handled with care. They can also break if used a few too many times, too. Therefore, I recommend that any important recorded material should be copied onto another blank tape and then keep that second tape in a safe place to use as a backup. These shortcomings frustrate me and therefore I will have to take off one star to make this a four star review.
Overall, Maxell makes the XL2 cassette tape to give us a great choice when we want reliable cassette tapes to record music at a high level of quality for a cassette tape. This cassette tape can be used to record other things, too, including lectures at school. I have used this brand for a while now and I cannot think of any major complaints. I highly recommend Maxell XL2 60 minute cassette tapes for you to use when you need to record something onto a tape--especially music.
