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.

Back in the early 80s I bought a bunch of cheap Memorex tapes. Well they failed and wasted all the effort making playlist tapes. Switched to the venerable TDK SA90 and still have them.

Is it essential to put a screaming title? Don't you even know a little about the rules of "netiquette"?
