Tape length: 30minutes per side. Weight: 240g.

　　Sony M9

　　$49.95

　　Small and very good looking, Sony’s latest offering scored most for its appearance. Sounds clear, but there is slight machine noise. The big control buttons are a great improvement on some of the complicated little controls on other tape-recorders. It doesn’t switch off automatically, but a red light shows if the machine is still running.

　　Tape length: 60minutes per side. Weight: 195g.

　　Sony M400

　　$115

　　Lots of little control buttons that make a noise are difficult to use. Recording is good but machine noise loses points. Tape counter and automatic switch-off when tape has finished recording or rewinding are useful.

　　Tape length: 60 minutes per side. Weight: 230g.

　　Imperial OEM MC7 $ 29.95

　　Cheap and simple compared with the rest, but recording is good as long as there is no background noise. Use only its own-make of cassette. No light to show it is on; no fast-forward button and the record button makes a loud noise.

　　Tape length: 30 minutes per side. Weight: 285g.

　　Philips 585 $80

　　Handsome and simple to use, but recording is very poor at more than the recommended distance of 5 cm-designed for dictation. No recording light.

　　Tape length: 15 minutes per side. Weight: 220g.
