Sony WMFX 463 Walkman AM/FM/TV Stereo Cassette Player

Sony Walkman Digital AM/FM TV Stereo Cassatte Player with Stereo Headphones
In the case of quality, it’s difficult to beat a Sony Walkman. This lightweight radio cassette player from packs several impressive features. Whether you plan on jamming to loud music or listening to your favorite talk show, this Sony Walkman can tune in all kinds of audio options.

It is not uncommon for portable cassette players to also feature AM/FM radio reception. Alternatively, this Sony unit contains an peculiar extra: TV sound from broadcast channels 2 to 13. This can be a great way to catch your favorite soap opera, sports broadcast, or sitcom at the same time as on the go. Of course, this Walkman also plays audiocassettes. The unit comes with a durable pair of headphones, which we found to be a bit bulkier than one of the most lightweight ones found on other models. Still, the headphones were a comfortable fit and delivered excellent sound.

If you plan to listen to music that relies on a heavy beat, such as hip-hop or dance music, then you can appreciate Sony’s optional Mega Bass mode, which delivers rich bass enhancement. There is also a loud and proud Groove mode, which further enriches the bass. With all this powerful audio, Sony has wisely included hearing-protection technology, known as Automatic Volume Limiter System. This optional feature lets you limit the maximum volume coming from the headphones. Other extras include 20-station preset tuning, auto reverse, and a built-in clock.
