Editorial Review:
Sony's TC-WE475 dual-well cassette player/recorder offers high quality and plenty of great features, including dual auto-reverse playback. When coupled with the deck's relay play feature, dual auto-reverse means you can enjoy up to three hours of continuous music from two 90-minute cassettes. One tape well plays, the other records. You can set the recording input level using a dedicated control or rely on Sony's auto level-setting feature to choose the most appropriate level for your tape (this works best on dynamically limited material such as pop music). Choose from normal- and high-speed dubbing: normal speed for higher fidelity, high speed for greater convenience.
Sony has built the deck with high-density Permalloy tape heads for long life. For noise reduction, the TC-WE475 is outfitted with both Dolby B, the encoding standard used on most prerecorded cassettes, and Dolby C, which buys you another 10 to 20 dB or so of noise reduction beyond that offered by Dolby B (around 10 dB). Use Dolby when recording and, if a tape has been recorded using Dolby, when listening.
Two other technologies specifically heighten the quality of your recordings. During loud level peaks, Dolby HX Pro dynamically adjusts the bias signal (a supersonic and basically sacrificial tone your deck uses to push distortion out of the audible range), effectively letting you record "hotter"--that is, louder on tape--without compressing the high-frequencies of your program material. Secondly, an onboard MPX filter blocks the 19 kHz multiplex pilot tone of FM stereo broadcasts for proper Dolby noise-reduction tracking when you record off the air.
Other features include full-logic, feather-touch transport controls and twin electronic tape counters (one for each deck), which come in handy when you're making a compilation from a variety of source tapes. If you have a Sony audio/video receiver, you can operate the deck from your receiver's remote control.

I bought one of these decks in november 2006, and one week later I had to exchange it for another because the relays misfunctioned, so that instead of rewinding, it ran the tape forward for two sequences. I got another, same problem. When I got the third one and it started doing it, I decided to get it repaired in Loredo tx. they repaired one side, then the other one started doing it. I got that repaired in July 2007, and, now it is starting it again. The relays are unreliable, and your tapes ... Read More
Rating:  - sony TCWE475 Dual Cassette Player/Recorder
I bought this unit hoping I could somehow salvage my many tapes recorded in DBX format.I am happy to say they all play with no " breathing " I will not be using the record section of the unit. I will import the tape information in to my computer program " Audio Cleaning Lab " and process to make CD 's . I am very pleased with the unit especially since no one still makes tape units with DBX decoding.
Rating:  - Works fine, but I don't care for it
I own a dance studio and I've gone through many tape decks through the years. This one is not really user friendly for my purposes. I personally don't care for decks that play tapes on the reverse side, since it makes it too hard for me to quickly find the song I am looking for. Also, you can't make good edits from one tape to another with this type of deck. I prefer the older type decks that only play one side of the tape.
Rating: - Good, solid, sony product
Very pleased with this product. I have used it to copy from a cassette tape and it seems to be just what I was looking for: nothing too complicated or sophisticated, just good, solid, Sony quality at a good price. And these things are hard to come by, now.
