Cassette Copying Made Easy
If you still have a collection of cassettes, or have a tape deck in your car, you'll get lots of use out of the CTW208R. This double auto-reverse cassette deck features normal and high-speed dubbing and the auto reverse recording on Deck II means you can dub an entire cassette without having to worry about flipping the tapes. Just get the recording going and wait for your copy to be completed. Dolby B/C noise reduction makes for cleaner sound.
Get To The Good Stuff
Dubbing isn't all there is to the CTW208R's abilities. It offers lots of playback features that make for great, convenient listening. The music/skip search lets you skip up to 15 songs forward or backward to find what you're looking for. You can also use blank skip to get through blank spots on a tape without having to worry about watching the progress and stopping it at the right time. The CTW208R stops it for you. The auto-reverse play on the CDW208R makes for hassle-free playback of your favorite tapes, while the twin motors drive the moving parts within the player, for more stable, accurate operation and improved musical reproduction.

I recently purchased this deck and am very happy with it. The auto reverse is so smooth I dont even notice it so it doesnt distract from the music I am listening to. I am very pleased with the sound quality and look forward to duplicating my older cassette tapes so that I will be able to enjoy them for a long time to come. Thanks to Panasonic for continuing to make a quality dual cassette deck at a reasonable price.

The unit has performed above expectations and is very easy to use.
The dual auto reverse feature is especially handy.
Have never had a complaint about any Pioneer products.

I purchased the CT-W208R primarily to digitize many years of live recordings by various bands I have played with. Since those cassettes date back to the 70s, I wanted as many features as possible in an affordable package - Dolby B & C in particular. The deck worked wonderfully for the grueling task.
The start stop rew and FF mechanism never failed, jammed, or otherwise gave me problems. It did make the typical mechanical noise associated with tape deck drives....something we take for granted in new CD formats.
The heads and sound quality were much better than I expected, even for antique tapes. I would say, for the technology, this is certainly as much, if not more, than I need at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend this deck for general purpose use.
Vanns was not the cheapest, and certainly not the most expensive. But they were very easy to deal with and shipping was lightening fast.

My collection of cassette tapes were beginning to deteriorate so I started copying them to CDs. My two tape players quit during the process and repairs were out of the question due to their age.Prior experience with Pioneer products has been good so when I discovered a tape deck made by that company was available, that was my choice. It has been used approximately 100 hours to date without a problem. Recording hasnt been done as it has been used as a player only. Im sure it will record properly as all Pioneer products Ive had in the past have performed very well.

My nearly 87 year old Aunt Aggie is famous for making her pizzelles. She has the same iron that I purchased. Her cookies are the best and the iron is a great contributer to that success.
Mine worked great first time out and I am anxious to make more for future family gatherings. The size of the cookie is perfect and they come out without any trouble and without the nonstick coating! Aggie inststed on that and shes right. We have other friends with other irons who are not as successful as we are. We are so glad we found you. I am ready now to carry on Aggies legacy and start one in my family.

I bought this Pioneer unit to replace a more expensive Sony of similar description that finally stopped working after twenty plus years of service. This Pioneer is doing everything just as well as the previous Sony. Its easy to use and I have fast-dubbed tapes with no problem. Currently, I am recording streamed sports broadcasts from my computer which is patched into my AMFM receiver. I recommend this unit highly.

Purchased as a holiday gift for a non-techie roommate. Built well with doors that shut securely. The independent motors for the decks allow dubbing copying from one cassette to another with source playing in forward or reverse mode and recording deck can record in either direction independent of source deck. And, of course it can also record from other sources. Optional record mute allows blank space between songs if desired. Very easy to use. One button start or stop of recordingdubbing. With simplicity of use and good features and good instructions, this dual cassette deck should be a 'must have' item for any audiophile. Matches appearance and size of the Pioneer receiver bought at same time.
