A blast from the past to complement you Casio retro watches.

Apparently named one of the hottest gadgets by NY Times for fashion week which explains the sudden jump in price on 3rd September

Mixed reviews but looks promising

    Do hipsters still listen to tapes for the "superior" sound?

    • If they were, they certainly wouldn't buy this shit that's been rotting in a warehouse somewhere for the past 26 years.

      Cassettes can sound really good, but hipsters buying this junk deserve what they get when they first use it. It's like expecting the same sound quality as a Sony Hi-Fi system from a rubbishy CD player from a $2 shop.

        Plus it has Turbo written on the head band, that would have been a major selling point as well lol

        They just lack courage.

        • +1

          Courage didn't exist in the 80's

        • +3

          Courage didnt exist until Apple invented it.

          Anzacs going over the top? Nah. Anne Frank? Who?

          Tim Cook, Jony Ive, that's courage.

  • Says it won't ship to Australia?

    What are these for? Freaking out kids who've never heard of a walkman? Or is it for punishment? "Now little Timmy, you know the drill. If you don't stop hitting your sister I'm going to take away your phone and replace it with this and an ABBA cassette tape!"

  • Woah, graphic EQ

    These are great for playing Van Halen and pretending you are Darth Vader from the planet Vulcan.

    • You'll need a radiation suit though. Unfortunately, I could only find hazmat suits for sale.

        Is that a Devo suit?

  • I love the comment section :)

  • Will this pick up all Australian FM channels?

    From memory only some of the frequency crosses over, I've bought car stereos from overseas before that have had this problem.

  • The manual says 88-108MHz.
