I would not recommend spending all that $$ for something i think is not that good. I was very disappointed with my purchase.the record player doesnt play very clear. and the tapes were clear,then the tape player wasnt eatting them.
My experience with the Crosley has been such that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Cassettes, records, and CDs all play equally well, as does the radio. I ordered the Crosley Songwriter CD Recorder for my mom for Mother's Day.She has about a million records that we wanted to put on CDs. And I've got to say that over the last week, I've recorded about 25 CDs (and also a few cassette tapes), and absolutely love this unit.
With most selections it isn't too noticeable but on recording with quiet or soft music it is very noticeable. The one problem I have with the unit is after recording a CD during play back there is a audible noise in the backround. The two records I have recorded so far are in pristine condition with no scratches and no backround noise when played while not recording to CD. Used the Crosley CR248 Songwriter to record 33rpm albums to CD. Works pretty much as advertized and as per instructions in the owners manual.
It is now January 24, 2009 and I never did hear from them. I was told someone would call me back in 48-72 business hours. The turntable seemed to be warpped which was very noticable on the 45rpm records. Luckily the item has been returned and I have my money back. I called Crosley on Dec. Received as a Christmas gift.
I never tried the cassette. (No holidays or weekends). It came from JC Penny so I had no problem returning it. 31, 2008. I would not recommend this product to anyone. The albums worked okay but the 45rpm records did not.
Also on most of the 45's the stylus would come up before the record ended and return to its rest position, resulting in not getting the complete song.
The only thing now is they need to make a item like this that has a cd recording side as well as a cd player side like they do with cassette dual decks. Glad they found a way to make items that you could use to put records onto as well as made up cassettes. I am pleased with this item. I am still new with it but so far it is okay in my book.
