This review is from: Aiwa HSTX516 Dig.Synthesized Tuner Worldwide, Auto Reverse Cassette, 24hr Play (Electronics)
In my first try of this product, the earphones didn't work. The sound went in and out. However, I had backups, so I persisted. I take my Walkmans on hard, fast walks. This product's belt clip is not secure and will not withstand any sort of medium-hard movement. It will fall off. This happened to me, inevitably, and even though I mostly caught the player by the headphones, the tape player stopped working and the music became jumbled. I also could never program any radio stations. Go for a Sony.

Bought this for the auto-reverse...,

This review is from: Aiwa HSTX516 Dig.Synthesized Tuner Worldwide, Auto Reverse Cassette, 24hr Play (Electronics)
I got this at a local store, where I was attracted chiefly by the auto-reverse feature since I planned to listen to books on tape. Here is my opinion after about six to eight months:The set looks pretty and it works decently. Is it a bargain? Yes, and no. On one hand, I bought it and it still works - and I have dropped it a couple of times (indoors). On the other hand, when rewinding tapes, it can get a bit noisy (although the noise level drops from time to time). Also, the radio stations can be hard to preset (hint: do not lose your guide/manual), and at least one preset station experiences substantial interference (don't know whether that is the problem of the station or this set). The belt clip does not work too well, being rather flimsy, but I carry mine in a fanny pack along with spare batteries and extra cassettes. I don't know about the 30 station presets since I have only three going (and I erased one by mistake). All the buttons at the top can be a bit irritating, since I listen mostly to one radio station and then to the cassette. The LCD indicator for battery level is useful, but I wish that there was a way of seeing how far the tape was along (either in terms of time played, or even an old-fashioned counter), so that I do not have to keep opening the tape. The batteries required are two AA batteries and they run a long time, especially with the higher quality ones. The headphones are of uneven quality, in that they are not quite so comfortable now (with the foam wearing out) and it seems that the sound level has been dropping. I am reasonably satisfied with this set since it works well for me. If you have higher requirements, do not buy on impulse (unlike me), and/or want different features, you might be rather disappointed.
