Product Description
Tried and true, the Compact Cassette remains the most popular recording medium ever. For making exceptional recordings simply and quickly, the CTW208R is an excellent choice. With Dolby B & C noise Reduction, double auto-reverse transport, and full logic IC controls, and Music Search, this deck has the most requested features.Both cassette decks have auto reverse mechanisms, allowing for long-term listening and recording capabilities. Continuous Play with Auto Reverse select from several modes of playback-choose to play back all of tape A, then all of tape B or play the front side of tape A then the front side of tape B, then play the back side of each tape. Or, just use standard continuous play-load two cassettes into the unit, and select PLAY on each deck. When tape A finishes and shuts off, tape B will begin to play, allowing for uninterrupted listening. Dolby B & C Noise Reduction greatly reduces irritating tape hiss while increasing dynamic range on Dolby B or Dolby C encoded cassettes. Dolby B reduces noise by approximately 10 dB, while Dolby C reduces hiss by a whopping 20 dB. Full-Logic Tape Transport provides electronic, rather than mechanical, control of the drive system of the cassette deck. It delivers more reliability, smoother operation, and quicker one-touch control. To fast forward a cassette that is playing, simply touch the fast forward button then touch the play button when you desire. On mechanical transports, you would have to stop the tape, press fast-forward, press stop, then press play. Metal Tape Capability provides optimum playback calibration with both normal bias tapes as well as high-bias and metal-position cassettes.

Great value and good quality February 16, 2008
12 out of 14 found this review helpful
With cassette decks becoming more and more a rare commodity, and myself in need of one, thought I'd give this one a shot. Found a customer return on clearance for $97 (from Vanns), and looks to have been a good decision. The buttons are responsive, the mechanisms smooth and quiet, and my tapes sound darn good through it. Teac has a low budget one for around $90, but other reviews made it sound cheap and cheezy, plus there was no push-button tape eject mechanism on it. A review of a comparable Sony (around $150) said the unit could easily be damaged, simply by an incorrect button push while the unit was playing. No thanks. This Pioneer unit is solid, quality, nice looking, easy to hook-up and use. Considering the dated technology, it's ashame none of these deck units sell for lower cost. Makes me think the RIAA is somehow involved. But, if you want a quality unit for around $150, you can't go wrong on this one.

this unit works great, it was needed to copy a collection of cassette recordings that were getting some age on them. it is good to find a quality unit still available at a reasonable price.
