K7 Cassette Tape Player - Cassette to MP3 Converter - Portable Cassette Player - Tape Recorder with Built-in Microphone & Speaker - Rechargeable Battery - Earphones - 16GB SD Card -Black

The moment I opened the package, I knew I’d made the right decision going for this over the cheaper ones I was looking at. Right out of the box, you can tell it’s a quality product with some nice extra touches from Klim. Included in the pack: Manual Envelope containing stickers and a very humorous comic strip Earphones with magnetic ends to keep them together Clip for the earphones to clip to your clothes 3 pairs of ear buds in various sizes USB to USB-C cable 16gb micro SD card that plugs straight into the unit USB 2.0 memory stick that the micro SD card can also plug into The cassette player/recorder itself, with built in lithium battery You have everything you need to get going. Mine came already charged but it charges quickly with the supplied cable. The tape deck opens and closes nicely. Set up is easy. Just insert the SD card, switch on and you’re ready to play. The supplied earphones are absolutely fine but I use my own, which are a bit more expensive and slightly clearer. It also has a built in speaker. The sound level is great. Rewinding and fast forwarding takes as long as it took back in the day: that’s just the nature of tapes so I wouldn’t expect it to be any faster now. I would prefer the two buttons to be the other way round as I sometimes hit the first button and end up fast forwarding when I meant to rewind. To record, simply press play and long press rec and your music transfers straight to the SD card: it couldn’t be easier. In SD mode, you can play back your recordings from the SD card, quickly skip tracks back and forward, and play tracks on random/repeat. You can then put the SD card into the memory stick to back up your music to PC, or play tracks on your devices straight from the card. You can also voice record onto the SD card using the built in mic. Note: You cannot record anything directly onto cassette, only SD card. It has an LCD display which shows battery life left, mode, counts up the track length, shows whether it’s on repeat/random. I thought I had digital copies of all my old music but just on the first few tapes I’ve played, I’ve found forgotten gems. It’s a real trip down memory lane. The quality of the recordings really depends on the quality of the original tapes but I’m really happy with the standard of my recordings. It’s a quality piece of kit and a must-have if you’re still sitting on a pile of old tapes that haven’t yet been backed up. I highly recommend it!

Bought this just to copy a large collection of cassette tapes to mp3. This does the job quickly with no fuss. Great value little machine. One thing it has shown up is the poor quality of some of my pre recorded albums, these have not been used for many years and some have deteriorated, the ones that I recorded are all fine. It must be that I had used quality tapes like Memorex ect whereas the bought cassettes obviously used poor quality limited life tapes.

Probably the best cassette converter to mp3 I’ve tried. It successfully converts your cassette tapes to mp3 via the micro sd provided and with no glitches in replay. The reservations I have are that playback is immediate and you are not able prevent this even if you turn on the device with the micro sd inserted. In addition, playback sound using the earphones is very ‘tinny’ (doesn’t matter if you use any other earphones) as there are no base and treble controls. Other than that, it is a good device and is well worth the money.

Seems good (KLIM k7bl portable). I've recorded about 10 audio tapes onto mp3, no problems. Quality seems good. I'm no audiophile but the mp3 files are better sound quality than the original cassettes played through my (old) Walkman. It's fairly easy to use. Comes with an sd memory card, onto which you record. Then take that sd card out, put it into the usb stick (also comes with product) and plug that 'loaded' usb into laptop for transfer. Yes the unit is a bit plasticky and probably won't last many years. And the way it works is not made very clear or superconvenient, but is manageable to a non techy person like me.

Received the Item. No Problem. Many Thanks. Linden.

Surprised at how good this is. I was going to buy a more expensive brand but noticed a review for this on a website. My old skool rave tapes were sounding slow on my sony boom box and one tape chewed. The tapes sound great on here on my decent speaker. Not tried to recording yet but will do soon.

When the music has been transferred from tape cassette to SD micro card and you replay the recording on the micro card you are unable to fast foward the tracks it will only play from the beginning each time and will play to the end no midway playing of music tracks or next file recording

Great price of kit for converting tapes to MP3 files. Easy to use use. Very impressed.
