This vintage electronic device has been serviced to play beautifully. However, like many vintage electromechanical devices, it has unique characteristics. Operational Mechanical Noise: During playback, you will hear a faint mechanical gear noise. This is the sound of the intricate gears and motor working to rotate the cassette. Crucially, this noise is NOT audible through headphones while listening to music. It is purely a mechanical sound from the body itself. By purchasing this item, you acknowledge and accept this characteristic. Sony WM-EX909 Walkman Unit (Excellent Condition).
