Yes, I know that cassettes are a bit "old school," but I still like the convenience of blank cassettes for recording certain information. Maxwell is one of the few companies who still make high-quality cassettes, and the 120-minute tapes meant I can record much more information before having to change.I received these tapes in good time and in great condition.
These tapes are good for everyday use. I have some of them in use form almost a year and they are still working perfect.
Poor quality control. Tapes often rub on playing. Noise level is high. Use Fugi 90 minute tapes far better at slightly more cost
The tapes allow you hours upon hours of listening enjoyment; and they take up very little room so they're easy to carry around with you. The tapes have small pieces of plastic on the narrow top of each cassette which you can punch out easily so that accidental recording over an existing recording is impossible. This is useful when recording one hour radio talk shows, for example. These tapes have 120 minutes worth of blank recording tapes on them so there are 60 blank minutes for recording on each side. Maxell manufactures excellent 120 minute cassette tapes for all purpose general recording. I have used this brand for years and I cannot think of any major complaints. These shortcomings frustrate me and therefore I will have to take off one star to make this a four star review. Moreover, cassette tapes--especially the 120 minute kind with its thinner than usual tape--can break if not handled with care.
The cassette tape is now ready to record a fresh recording. These tapes cannot produce the same quality recording reproduction as a digitalized copy would give you. As long as you have the right kind of equipment, these tapes record the sounds of record albums, radio shows, CD-Rs, people talking and just about anything else. If you decide to record over an original recording then you can merely place a small amount of regular tape over the hole. There is one disappointment; however. This means that if, hypothetically, you were to copy a CD-R onto another CD-R instead of a Maxell cassette tape, the quality of the sound on the CD-R copy would be sharper and clearer with less background noise than a Maxell cassette tape or any other brand of cassette tape could give you. Overall, Maxell makes a superior choice when you want reliable cassette tapes to record music, the radio, people talking or anything you wish to record. I highly recommend Maxell 120 minute cassette tapes for you to use when you need to record something onto a tape.
Essential for keeping notes on business matters that don't need to be referenced immediately.
