This tape recorder is perfect for recording class lectures or conducting field interviews for academic purposes. The only thing you have to watch is make sure you have it on the right tape speed. You have to use the higher quality speed if you want to hear anything in a classroom setting. If the speaker is close and you only want the lecture and none of the student comments or you are conducting an interview both speeds are fine. Overall a very fine purchase

Right size,right weight,exceptional mic pick-up.Playback clear and distinct.Good volume.Having not purchased such a device in many years,I overlooked not insuring an "auto-reverse" feature.Rewind also exceptionally "slow". Then again,for the price, not much argument to be made.

i didn't get the product I purchased
The address in the box was OK, but the product inside the box was something else (a selector switch). Please contact me or DHL to find the right product.

Great Recorder!
Picks up sound clearly. The only downside is that my Apple headphones did not fit into the jack. Other than that it is a useful and a good piece of equipment.

Finnaly, a good portable dictaphone without voice activation
My boss is of the old school and dictates all his work. He likes a portable dictaphone because he dictates at odd times, when on the road, at home on the weekends, etc. Read more
