I bought this Sony TC-D5 Pro II several years ago at a flea market not knowing if it would work. I brought it home, popped in two D batteries and a tape, and it worked fine. It has spent most of the time I’ve had it in a moisture-free box inside the house, and I brought it out from time to time to play old mix tapes, hooking it up with RCA cables to a Sony TA-1066 amplifier from around 1974. It’s in fine working condition and sounds amazing. Rewind, fast forward, pause, the monitor speaker and the tape counter all work perfectly. The VU meters bounce, and the lights work. These were amazingly rugged machines that were designed for journalists doing fieldwork. It has two microphone ports that take Canon XLR-3-12C type connections. The only slight drawback is that it does not have the original battery cover. The second-hand market for parts for this machine is narrowing but is not impossible with enough effort. This is the last model that Sony made in this series before it essentially stopped making these heavy duty recorders for the professional market, so on the plus side, this one was likely produced in the early’90s. At this price and still functional, you won’t see a less expensive one. The item “Sony TC-D5 Pro II vintage portable cassette recorder, superb condition” is in sale since Tuesday, July 14, 2020.
