An ideal unit for music fans with limited storage space, the Teac AD-500 integrates a CD player and a cassette deck, giving listeners access to two audio formats in a single compact housing. The CD player section incorporates a 1-bit digital-to-analog converter to ensure superior audio playback, while also offering such functions as track programming, random play, and repeat play. The full-logic auto-reverse cassette deck, meanwhile, plays and records both forward and backward, letting you easily archive CDs or radio programs without missing more than a moment of footage. Users will also appreciate the AD-500's synchro-start function, which automatically starts the recording once the CD begins playing to ensure a seamless listening experience.

Additional cassette deck features include a four-digit electronic index counter with a convenient Clear button; an automatic tape selector; switchable Dolby B noise reduction; and cassette pitch control. A final bonus stems from the Computomatic program search function, which scans for sound breaks in the cassette so you can easily find the song you're seeking. The AD-500 also includes separate line outputs for CD and cassette, a headphone jack with level control, and a full-function remote control.

So condense your system components without losing precious functionality with the Teac AD-500.

Customer Reviews:

• Avg. Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0
• Great for those of us who can't part with our audio cassettes
  My initial impression is that this is a high quality unit that does great things, not only for CD albums, but for all those treasured cassettes you used to use in your car until your new car came with a CD player.
  Now you can bring both of those formats out of the car, now that a hot summer is just around the corner, and enjoy them inside using earphones or as input to your stereo or home theatre system.
  My greatest surprise is how good the cassettes sounded in this player. I never remembered them... more info
