Relive the sound of the 80s with a Bluetooth cassette player

Perfect for listening to those Bon Jovi mix tapes.

If you find that having your music in good quality, being able to skip tracks with fast forwarding and fitting all your media onto one device is just too convenient, then we've got good news: Cassette tapes are making a comeback.

NINM Lab is introducing the "world's first Bluetooth portable cassette player," an update of the classic Sony Walkman that will play the collection of cassette tapes you still have buried at the back of your closet.

I'll never forget that background hiss, and the thrill of having to extract miles of tape from the player when there was a jam.

If you had pro-level cassette players, there was no hiss, if you kept the heads, rollers, and capstan immaculate clean.

That being said, pro-level gear was, and still is, ridiculously expensive.

I will stick with with records as my main listening medium. Those newfangled cassettes seem like they are more hassle, than they are worth. Big Grin
