NEVER BUY CHEAP CASSETTES - - YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR


I purchased some '80s K-mart and Tonemaster cassettes off of ebay. I wasn't really expecting these to sound great, but good lord, these sound horrendous. The sound is muffled yet tinny, and the left and right channels cut in and out. 

I don't really feel stupid, because I had to eventually try these out to see why they were so cheap. Glad I did.

I won't mess with cheap ones ever again. A few minutes ago I bought a NOS unopened Fuji DR-1, because I already bought one, and the sound was excellent.

Is it essential to put a screaming title? Don't you even know a little about the rules of "netiquette"?
when I sold my Nakamichi super top deck 15 years ago I gave away more than two hundred TDK MA-Rs that I had used for my recordings.
They were metal bodied cassettes that cost a lot ... no regrets then and no regrets today for giving them away.
