Sony WMFS499 Sports Walkman

Rating:
Summary: Classic Sports Walkman
Review: Bought this because my previous Walkman died after many good years of service. Nothing lasts forever and my old one took many a bump and drop. So I approximated this model would be a good replacement. I was right. It's a nice heir to the line of Sports Walkman's. Like the clasp, the lap counter is a nice feather and the mega bass really helps with the right music. This is a fine product. You will not be disapponted.

Review: I dropped my last Sony cassette player and tried to find another one just like it, which is impossible and I saw this on Amazon and jumped on it. I walk and listen to audiobooks and I so glad I purchased this one.

The loading of the batteries and tapes are odd, but for the listening, the stereo sound and dobly feature are great. Compared to my last Sony, this one really surpasses it.

I did change to another Sony headset with earplugs. I do not like the over the head type. I do want to purchase another like the other reviewer said, you never know when you need another spare.

Summary: Buy one now- while you still can!
Review: I have two older model Walkmans and I dropped both of them by accident and the cassette tape player feature no longer works. To my surprise, when I went to several local stores, I couldn't find a similar Walkman for sale. I guess with the i-Pods and other new technology, the tape players are being phased out. I bought a newer model Sony Walkman at Target and the sound quality of the tape was so awful I took it right back. These players that only use one battery have terrible sound quality I've found. The FM radio stations had terrible reception, too.

I found this Sony WMFS499 Sports Walkman for sale here on Amazon.com and purchased it and I love it! Since I use my Walkman for walking and running, I need a durable player that can withstand being dropped and getting damp in the rain, and the case on my new player seems indestructible. The sound quality of both the FM radio and tape player are fantastic! I decided to buy another one to have as a spare in case I lose this one. That sounds kind of crazy, but having a good tape player for exercise is important to me and I don't want to ever risk being without my Sports Walkman.

Summary: Good quality, but the radio...
Review: This walkman is awesome! It's sound is un-matched! The headphones are really cool! The only problem with it is that the radio stations do not play very well. I have to constantly move the walkman around to get a good perception. If you don't care about the radio feature, but need to play your tapes, go for this one!

Summary: Great Sony Sports Walkman... Bad Headphones
Review: This walkman is REALLY GOOD! The Best Feature to me is the Anti-Rolling Mechanism since it creates a better quality of sound. The Groove-Mega Bass Feature is Also Good. The Headphones although feel really awkward. The Radio Station tuning is very good. The Input into the 12345 buttons are hard. The Battery life is GREAT... 1 Battery for 22 Hours Playback! The antenna is very good somewhat. This walkman is best to tell you the truth. Headphone are really bad and so is the lap counter thing. Buy One! You won't regret it..
