Price Paid: $314.00 from Audio & Video Mullsj Summary I love tapes for the convinience and relativily good sound and have ca. 200pcs. When i bought my stereo I replaced my faulty Pioneer CT6060 wich in classic style have good mechanics and a giant flywheel. The CT-W606DR does a fine jobb of cleaning up the sound on old tapes (+20 years old) and have nice features for optimizing of recording with BLE XD and Dolby B/C. Before this new tapedeck I used to sample songs to the PC and clean it up with Cool Edit and make AAC and MP3 of them but now they sound perfectly right in realtime!Strength Digital filtering, features, convinience. Cheap.Weakness No remote, no lighting of cassetewell, most plastic.Would you like to Comment? Join audioReview for a free account, or Login if you are already a member.

Price Paid: $186.00 from Consumer Direct Ware Summary I bought this tape deck because it had good features like the 20 bit D/A converter and all the nice features one would normally look for in a cassette player. Another factor being that I had bought a Pioneer PDF-1009 CD player so I thought I could use its remote control with the tape deck. To my disappointment, it turned out that the cassette player has a control-in wire which works with Pioneer receiver and is incompatible with Kenwood receiver so had to return it.Strength Clear sound, good featuresWeakness Can be remote-controlled only with Pioneer receivers!!! Noisy operation.Would you like to Comment? Join audioReview for a free account, or Login if you are already a member.

Price Paid: $230.00 Summary I recently purchased both the Pioneer CT-W606DR and the Sony TC-WA7ESA with the plan of keeping the one I liked best. I expected the more expensive Sony would be the keeper, but to my surprise the Pioneer sounded much better, even with its digital features turned off. Kudos to Crutchfield for a liberal return policy. They will be getting back the Sony soon.Strength The Pioneer has great sound and convenient features. Its controls are easy to operate. It is considerably less expensive than the Sony TC-WA7ESA.Weakness The Pioneer has two motors instead of the Sony's four, and lacks Dolby S. However, its superior sound quality outweighs these differences.Would you like to Comment? Join audioReview for a free account, or Login if you are already a member. Reviewed By W.A.
