Sony TCM-150 Cassette Recorder with Automatic Recording Level Control

I am quite disappointed with this sony product. It works well but the big drawback is that you hear the motor rumble in your recordings. I wonder if other buyers have this problem or did I get a poor model? Buy cheap and get cheap I should know better.

The article is nice and I am using it with good results.

This is a terrific tape recorder.

I've always found that bells and whistles like voice activation don't work. This one does. You want it on, you turn it on. You want it off, you turn it off. It's recording quality is very good for this medium. We're not talking digital sound, of course, but no magnetic tape machine will deliver that quality.

I've used probably a dozen recorders over many years, and this one is one of the best values out there.

Easy to use and a real asset for my needs

I use this recorder for my voice lessons, and chorus practice. It has been grest. I love it.
