This vintage Sony stereo cassette-corder is A stylish piece from a well-known brand and extremely rare model.

Portable cassette equipment from this era carries a special kind of charm — tactile controls, mechanical operation, and the unmistakable feel of real analog media. The Sony WA-8000MKII brings that character into a compact, collectible format that can be appreciated both as an audio device and as a design object.

Please note that the motor for the tape is working but you will need to replace the internal belt (on the next appx €20 for part) for the tape to work.
It’s a bit of a tricky repair, so I’m selling at a very reasonable price as in full working order it goes for double the price. The heads look new condition.

Once repaired, it’s one superb collectors unit.The radio and clock are Perfect, really good sound.
It can run on ac/dc power and aa batteries.
