Editorial Review:
Around the world, the Teac name is synonymous with high-quality, high performance consumer gear - not surprising when you consider that Teac has been a leader in the industry since its earliest reel-to-reel recorders. Today, Teac manufactures an entire spectrum of components for both high-fidelity audio systems and digitally enhanced home theaters. For many audiophiles, the Teac label is a symbol of pride, one that shows they are serious about audio quality. Industry experts share this enthusiasm for Teac products, giving them consistently high marks for performance.The W790R Double Auto-Reverse Cassette Deck features twin IC logic control mechanisms, variable pitch control ? 10% (Deck 1), bi-directional double-deck continuous playback, bi-directional record and playback (Deck 2), normal & high speed dubbing (Deck 1 to Deck 2), synchro reverse dubbing, Dolby B/C Noise Reduction, Dolby HX Pro (Deck 2), multi-function fluorescent display, left & right peak program level meters, dual 4-digit electronic tape counters, REC mute with auto spacer (Deck 2), CPS Computomatic Program Search (Decks 1 & 2), Intro Check & Blank Scan functions, auto tape type selector (Normal/CrO2/Metal) and headphone output. This deck is also Teac "UR" (Unified Remote) compatible.
The versatile W790R dual cassette deck is ideal for both recording musicians and casual music fans seeking full-featured audiocassette performance. The deck is outfitted with such features one-touch recording, one-touch normal and high-speed dubbing, and bi-directional double-deck continuous playback. The latter function is ideal for parties and clubs, as the deck automatically starts playing a second cassette when the first one ends. Professionals will doubtless appreciate the bi-directional recording, which streamlines the recording process, along with the variable +/- 10 percent pitch control--a favorite of DJs looking to speed or slow the tempo.
Internally, the W790R is equipped twin IC logic control mechanisms, dual auto-reverse tape transports, and an ultra-reliable Servo motor. Users can follow the progress of their playback and recording on the easy-to-read multifunction fluorescent display and the individual left/right program level meters. The dual four-digit tape counters, meanwhile, make it easy to find a particular program or tape segment on either deck. And to ensure both wide cassette compatibility and elite-level sound, the W790R offers both Dolby B/C noise reduction, which reduces hiss, and Dolby HX Pro, which makes it possible to record loud musical passages without losing the high frequencies or suffering from distortion. Dolby HX Pro is a must for professionas seeking the best possible sound.
As with most high-end cassette decks, the W790R also supports synchro-reverse dubbing, along with computomatic program search, intro check, and blank scan functions. Finally, the front-panel headphone jack, which comes with a dedicated volume control, permits private listening so you can enjoy a cassette without disturbing others or cue a tape while another source is playing through your room monitors.
At 17.12 by 4.94 by 11.5 inches (W x H x D), the deck fits nicely in Teac's RM-860 rack-mount kit. The deck is also compatible with Teac's unified remote (UR) for system-wide use.

Rating:  - Very good Quality, especially for the price I paid
This has worked out very well for playing tapes to record onto my computer, in order to convert old sermons from tape to Digital/CD. I really enjoy using it with the optinos for Dolby-B or Dolby B and C noise reduction, and also the optinos for strait-playing one side, or looping a-b-a-b or just side 1 once and side 2 once.. helps out A LOT for converting old tapes to digital.
For my setup, using a min-Yamaha sound board between the tape player and computer to even further clean-up/inhance ... Read More
Rating:  - TOTALLY DISSATSFIED
I had previously owned a Teac dual casset player/recorder for twenty years and was very satisfied with it. When it finally broke I decided to purchase another. Upon reciept of the new recorder I proceeded to try all functions of the machine. When I tried to record from a CD or another casset the results was garbled noise. I'm sure that this was not the norm for Teac equipment,but I returned the merchandise and ordered the more expensive Denon. Hopefully this recorder will last far more than twenty years.
Rating:  - I should have gone to thrift store
I needed to move some old tapes to digital. I bought this item because it got good reviews and it seemed a fair price at about $160. It works fine. It would be nice if it had a volume control for the headphones. It would be nice if it had a remote control. It would be nice if the tape clack weren't LOUD and slow. It would be nice if it didn't have cheap switches on the lefthand side... But all in all, it's fine as is.
Then a couple weeks after I bought this one, I saw a really nice tape ... Read More
Rating: - Great cassette player
Look around in your local electronics stores and you'll find either HUGELY expensive players or single tape units.
This player allows tape-to-tape duplication as well as the ability to put two of your old collection in and listen uninterrupted. Sure, it's not a 100-disk CD carousel...but how else are you going to listen to some of your best stuff (that you probably taped yourself?).
This, or the other TEAC dual-cassette units, should find a place on your shelf.
Rating: - Incredible For The Price
We produce books-on-CD, but when we record live, we use a small, studio-quality tape recorder for convenience. We then ship the masters to a popular nationwide service for transference to CD.
Our old tape-to-tape machine just couldn't be repaired again, and we needed to back up a master fast. I ordered the Teac W790R because I knew I could have it overnighted. We were all surprised by the excellent backup tapes it produced, and have continued to use it.
And our technician couldn't ... Read More
