Nice recorder, November 20, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Panasonic RQ2102 Cassette Recorder (Office Product)
I just bought it and am very happy with it. Like a previous reviewer, I use mine for song ideas and also for singing practice. I prefer the larger speaker of a shoebox recorder because it provides better fidelity and more volume than you get with hand-helds. And although I don't move my recorder around much, I wanted both portability and a direct AC connection.
Before buying the Panasonic shoebox recorder, I compared it to the GE 3-5027.

The GE recorder uses an AC adapter with a transformer that plugs into the wall and has a thin wire that plugs into the recorder.

I would give this product a 5 simply for existing! I had a hard time finding a similar product in stores. When I would stumble onto one, the price was often ... more than what I could get it for here. I don't know if this review praises ... or the product more. Nevertheless, I'm very happy with it. Sure, it's a bit antiquated in this era of digital gimmickry. But for what I need it for, it works great. Easy to use controls, big speaker for playback and it doesn't eat tapes! What more do you want?

Great little Recorder, February 15, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Panasonic RQ2102 Cassette Recorder (Office Product)
Great little recording tool, almost perfect sound recording for the price definitively the best all-around simple tape recorder, much better than Radio Shack's $49 and even higher priced. The standard recorder. Great for seminars, school, I use it for phone recording and song composition. I have a recording studio and this is a very valuable piece vs. the costly equipment.
