24 Hour Playback on 2 AA Alkaline Batteries / Auto Cassette Stop / MegaBass / Stereo Headphones
Amazon.com
Sony's WM-EX190 stereo cassette player is portable enough, and, at under half a pound, light enough to go anywhere you do. Sony's Mega Bass Sound System produces deep, rich bass to enliven appropriate music, an anti-rolling mechanism maintains stable tape speed to minimize music-distorting "wow and flutter" while the player is in motion.
The player's automatic volume limiter system (AVLS) maintains an even volume level, guarding against unintended level increases and evening the output of musical passages that vary widely in level. Automatic shut-off (in playback mode) extends battery life and helps prevent both mechanical and tape wear by turning off unit at the end of each tape side.
Supplied MDR (Micro Dynamic Receiver)-type over-ear headphones offer wide dynamic range and clear sound, and the unit also comes with a handy belt clip. Two AA batteries provide up to 24 hours (maximum, using Sony Alkaline batteries) of continuous tape playback.
What's in the Box
Cassette Walkman, MDR (Micro Dynamic Receiver)-type over-ear headphones, belt clip, user's manual, and warranty information.

Der Walkman ist gut, für sein Alter.

I own two other Sony portable cassette players. I like them both. I added this one to my collection today. Peter Paul and Mary sound great! The earphones supplied with the unit are fantastic. You can hear all the highs and lows. Great auto stop at the end of the tape. Five stars/

The thing broke after 3 days. It began to sound like frogs ululating under water. When I first got the machine, it was wonderful. All the great features of Walkman. I tried cleaning the capstan, new batteries, etc. The first 5 minutes are great. After that we get the frogs again. I sent it back to the company (not Amazon.) I have received no reply.

For all of us that have great, great cassette tapes (yay analogue!) this Walkman is a must and the sound quality is great with good bass. Hope they NEVER stop making these. Aren't they aware that there are zillions of cassette tapes out there that people are very attached to listening to?? I use when I exercise at the gym Love it!!

This is a really great little cassette player. The thing that is rather amazing is that it will play for many,many hours on the same batteries. The sound quality is also quite good. I had one of these many years ago, and at that time, they were available in drug stores for about $15. The price they are selling for now is pretty outrageous, but as they are now a more rare, hard to find item, I guess that is how it is. If you have old cassettes that you want to listen to, like I do, the price might still be worth it.

It's a collector's item now, and there weren't that many for sale, so I went for this good-as-new used Walkman. $65 for the Walkman itself, $56 for shipping, which delivered it to Customs, where it rattled around for a few weeks before being presented to us with a Customs bill for another EUR 50,- or so. Pretty costly, all in all, but I absolutely had to have a Walkman (replacement for the really old one I wore out).

I wanted a personal cassette player because I prefer to listen to books on tape as opposed to CD. I also wanted to listen to the radio now and then. This thing doesn't have a radio, so, OK. Do without. At least it plays tapes.The volume control was very sketchy. Sometimes there would be no change from turning the control knob, other times it would make huge leaps in volume with only one increment. It was hard to adjust it to the level I preferred. And sometimes if I moved around, the volume level would change on its own so I'd have to fiddle with it all over again. But, OK, at least it plays tapes.The headphones broke within a few weeks. But lots of places sell replacement headphones. So OK. At least it plays tapes.But now, after about a year, it quit. No sign that it was going to give out. The tape mechanism spins, but no sound comes out. I tried another pair of headphones, still no sound.So now, it doesn't even do the barest minimum. It didn't last even half as long as the last cassette player I had. I expected a Sony product to last longer, especially for a 3-digit price. Ultimately disappointing.
