Just in case you thought Cassettes were dead...

Just in case you thought Cassettes were dead... Fiio puts that rumor to bed.

Fiio has been killing it lately.

Fixing the wow and flutter in the cassette players is a pretty big deal. Everything else was next.

And only $109 on Amazon.

I have a couple decks that use cassettes, but these two are digital.

For the price if someone wanted a new tape player it’s probably a better choice. Fiio seems from my experience to make decent stuff.

Same here, I've got one of their dac/amps for cell phones and it works quite good.

In my world, cassettes are dead....  now, if I could only find an under-dash 8-track player to play my 40+ year Boston 8-track...

New cassette tapes are now being manufactured in Missouri.

Yard sales. I see one every couple of years.

@imeiamme Don't look at me I have enough trouble with English. 

 

@Coytee Lawdy you serious?  Boston?  Seriously?  😂  I somehow think NO but to be honest someone said something to me about an underdash and they were dead serious.  If you are let me know but I ain't bitin my friend.  I'd have to thunk.  Think maybe it was boxes full of them at an auction somewhere.  Well nm.  Disregard this transmission I'm returning to my regular programming...  Unless...  😂  NM, I just realized today's Sunday. 

[Coytee]

Sunday yes, but is it April 1st???

 

hmmmmmm......

I had a Panasonic under dash 8 track. Carried some Firesign Theater tapes in my car.

[NADman]
