Sony TCM-200DV Cassette Recorder with Dual Power Source

Nice player at a fair and reasonable price. I reommend this unit.

Not rating sony recorder, but... A reviewer named "An electronics fan" described his perfect recorder. What he described was the Olympus Pearlcorder S713, which I've had for about 10 years now. It has red LED to signal recording, a 3-digit tape counter, jacks for external headphone and microphone, auto stops at end of tape. Also has dual recording speeds and voice activated recording. I don't notice any tape noise while using internal microphone. The only caveat is that it's a microcassette. But still, the sound quality is even good for singing (in my opinion), but I'm still looking for standard size cassette tape recorder, assuming fidelity would be better.

the quickest way to evaluate this TCM-200Dv is--
Read the manual the recorder does everything it says
it can do with no problems

I was amazed at your prompt service. The product in conjunction with the price is superb. I returned an inferior model to my University (FIU) when I saw a superior model (2 rec. speed, etc) at a cheaper price.
I am grateful for your efficiency
