@verge: We took a look at some CD and cassette players from companies like Fiio and We are Rewind, but quickly found that they are not as advanced as some of their vintage counterparts. #retrotech #vintage #cassette #cdplayer #techtok

Those compact mechanisms were horrible. So fragile. I can’t even remember how many I personally broke. Please don’t brig them back!

Don't buy a new cassette deck. They can't be made in good quality because there's simply No quality parts made for them.

Here's a question. Why is NOBODY making a modern VCR?

Oh I cannot WAIT until mp3 players come back. I want buttons on everything I’m so sick of touch screens.

ok Vinyl and CDs I get. Authentic or High Quality. I still use them. But cassette? Cassette was a compromise at the time, awful.

The cassette player looks cool but they use the same cheap mechanism as everyone else because there is only one company that still makes them.

tbf if you cared about size and practicality you wouldn't be using a cassette player in 2024

unfortunately the technical peak of these kind of audio hardware technology is in the past. I wouldn't switch those designs, those components and assembly for wifi or Bluetooth...

I don't give af about the mechansim. These people don't even buying it yet so they don't know about it. They bulky and sounded good decent. Walkman better ngl. Regarding of reliability i prefer fiio

As a kid from the 80s who also worked at a video rental store right at the twilight of the format I do NOT get the love for VHS 📼 and magnetic cassettes in general. Those things sucked.

Alter, die Walkmann von früher waren cooler und besser als diese Schachtel.
