CP13 not have speakers and not have screen,
Now it is only a cassette player,
It's a purely analog sound output, and we didn't want to add too much digital-related things into it
Yes - please keep it as simple, pure, and analog as you can. If they want screen and chip and screen or bluetooth, they can always get a DAP. The battery is a good idea, although I don't think this takes too much power to run.
Can you also include a pencil to rewind those tapes manually if we have to?
The troops are in! I have my late Dad's Nakamichi ZX7 in fully serviced condition. It's also nice that so many companies still manufacture quality cassette tapes in the modern day.
Here's some wishful thinking: don't use a cheap off the shelf transport, all the ones currently available on the market are trash. Get an old Sony Professional WM-D6C and reverse engineer it. Make it a good CASSETTE PLAYER - bluetooth, streaming, wifi are great, but what the market needs is a real quality portable cassette player with good frequency response and mechanicals.
i do i still love the aesthetic. i have a cassette separate by technics and i buy music off bandcamp. the cassette releases you get the digital flacs as well.
i have an original cyrus 2 amp that was overhauled that plays cassettes beautifully with the technics. proper 80s design
For me it's all about consumption of the media be it music, movie, book etc.
Whatever is best at a price I'm OK with in a convenient/desirable form, not a collector of gadgets, but understand its a collection hobby for some.
I struggle sometimes to differentiate a good SD FLAC recording from the HD version but certainly can tell the inferiority of standard cassette (not minidisk digital).
I appreciate appeal of vinyl, but again, not for me.
Making recordings and mixtapes is fun a high end deck with good tape can make very high quality recordings. But it's also something else to keep idle hands busy. And let's face it, if you love vintage gear, how can you not love something like this.

Woah! That's a big chunk of change right there! Very nice.
Yes, many of mine are ripped but some good ones aren't but I don't feel like going through the boxes and boxes of CDs. My wife asks me when I am going to get rid of them. I told her just today, the kids will want them at which she rolled her eyes and laughed. I know they don't want them but not many buyers now. I have some well recorded CDs that I ripped and the sound is excellent.
