Did this initially when I was testing it. Not sure if this was just the belts and whatnot being used for the first time in a long time. Not sure if the record or telephone input Jack works. I tested it more as just a portable tape player, and it worked well.
Not sure if I have the speed control exactly in place, but the tapes I tried are close. The sound quality isn't amazing.
The headphones only work through the left side. This item is in the category "Business & Industrial\Office\Office Equipment\Dictation & Stenography\Dictaphones & Voice Recorders". The seller is "wildplumb" and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to United States.
