Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

This Pressman microcassette recorder is equipped with auto reverse and a clear voice sound system. It also features voice-operated recording, a three-digit tape counter, and an LED battery level indicator.

Product Description

The Sony M-730V Pressman has all the best that micro-cassette recorders have to offer. The auto reverse provides uninterrupted recording and playback of both cassette sides, with no need to turn the tape over. The voice-operated recording activates the recorder only when audible sound is present, conserving tape. Plus, with the "clear voice" sound system, it enhances voice quality for greater clarity. The hand strap is attached, so you won't lose it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good for the price, February 19, 2002

By	Ryan Webster "tomclancy2" (Boston area) - See all my reviews

I suggest that if you are planning on purchasing a voice recorder, buy a microcassette. Digitals only have so much room. Though digitals may playback sharper, its better to have more space. The playback on this Sony is pretty clear with hardly any distortion. It has an AC/DC plug, headphone plug and microphone plug as well. Some microphones can come out sounding clearer or worse depending on the quality of the microphone.
If you do end up buying this, or already own it, I have a few suggestions.
1. Always keep the tape speed at 2.4cm...much better sound.
2. Most of the time, keep the VOH on H unless there will not be a lot of noise. In that case, keep it OFF.
3. Use the Sony brand microcassettes.
4. Pop in a cleaning tape every month or two to keep it sounding fine.
