good but not perfect January 15, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
A good product that would be better if it could record at a greater distance. Some background hissing noise noticed.
Pretty Good Cassette Recorder! December 31, 2006 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I got a Sony TCM-200DV Cassette Recorder with Dual Power Source for Christmas. Since then, I have enjoyed listening to cassette tapes and making my own sounds. My brother loves it too. I recommened this cassette player to anyone who wants to make their own sounds and listen to cassette tapes.
NOT for lecture halls or meetings November 30, 2006 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
As a test, to make sure of the range, for recording a meetng, I did the following. The recorder failed completely. I turned the T.V. to a normal level. At eight feet away, the only playback was static. The recorders did not pick up the sound until I was six feet away. The only way it might be used in a meeting is if you only wanted to record one person and you placed the recorder immediately next to that speaker. Also, it does not automatically stop at the end of rewind.
Terrific recorder, misleading product title November 6, 2006 15 out of 15 found this review helpful
Wouldn't you think a product whose title reads "with Dual Power Source" would actually include the AC adapter? Not in this case, although I can order one separately.
If you in fact want the AC adapter to arrive in the same package as your cassette recorder, be sure you order the Sony TCM-210DV, which I now understand is the model I should have ordered. The TCM-210DV appears to be identical to the TCM-200DV but includes the AC adapter.
Although I don't have the AC adapter I wanted as insurance for the occasions on which I record on tape, the recorder performs just fine on battery. I use it primarily to play audiobooks from the public library, because a Walkman or other play-only motor is not powerful enough for old, worn cassettes.
