Received the CP13 yesterday. Listening now to some tapes dating to 1989. They still sound pretty solid. Can't remember if I added any EQ to them at the time. You lose a bit of staging and headroom from the cassette. Still very musical though and very engaging. Listening the Simple Minds Sparkle in the Rain and Dire Straits Brothers In Arms. Forces you to listen to the whole album as you did in the car back in the day. Seems my tapes did not degrade from where I stored them all these years. W/F is slight and tolerable. The onboard amp is decent, I'm listening at 50% and it's decently loud. Using my 99 Noirs currently. I'll try some other headphones later and some IEMs to see how the sound changes.

Would love to see a belt clip case for this thing.

Darn, that is pretty! Almost makes me think of getting one instead of waiting for the clear one… but I’ll probably wait for the clear one anyway, since it’s so cool. I wish the back could be red, with a clear front!

After seeing this red CP13, I ordered one today from AliExpress! I'm stoked, and I never thought I'd have a portable cassette player again. I have so many tapes in storage that I haven't played in decades. Most are copies of albums I bought with some containing playlists. So much looking forward to hearing them! Thanks so much Fiio!
