- Maxell is launching a Walkman -style cassette player with a built -in speaker
- The speaker is mono and 500MW
- Not all of the 80s should return
In Frankenstein; Or the modern Prometheus Mary Shelley wrote a warning story about science: the fact that a scientist can make something do not mean. I am quite sure that I was thinking of the Maxell MXCP-P100, which is frankly more scary than anything than Dr. Frankenstein never damn.
The MXCP-P100S is a new version of the cute and Walkman MXCP-P100 style that we tell you last month, but it has a terrifying addition.
TO spokesman.
This portable player is only asking for problems
The player itself is perfectly fine: it has Bluetooth 5.4 and a long -lasting battery that delivers up to nine hours of playback, works with normal type 1 ribbons of up to 90 minutes, and has a brass steering wheel that Maxell says that it establishes the sound. You can use it with wired or wireless headphones, and should, because a tape player with a speaker like this is an abomination.
The only good thing I can say about the speaker is that it is only 500MW and it is unlikely that it is enormously efficient, so it cannot be too strong when a clown decides to treat it with its cassette collection in the subway or on the bus.
But that is also one of the worst things about it.
I do not want to be too technical here, but when you push a 500MW monkey speaker to its limits, which says that the clown will work absolutely when they are in the seat behind you, sounds Damn horrible.
I know this because that is the size of the speaker that was in the recorder/players of mono cassette that used to record songs of the radio in the 1980s. And although I have a lot of nostalgia during that decade, there are some things, such as leg heater, satanic panic and always present threat of global thermonuclear war, which we do not need to return.
And small speakers in tape mallets are one of those things. Trust me, you don’t want one of those anywhere near you when you are caught in public transport.
The MXCP-P100 will be launched in Japan in August, and it is expected to cost around $ 100. It would be fine if it remained in Japan, personally, although its brother not simple, the MXCP-P100, seems more my speed.
