Sony Wm-f41 Walkman Am/fm Cassette Player

Feb 13, 2019

Sony WM-F41; Still Rockin' 32 Years On

For a 32-year-old piece of electronics the Sony WM-F41 Walkman has fared well. While the belts had belted away and needed to be replaced (as does happen with all these old units), everything else seemed in order. Once I properly replaced the belts and cleaned out the mechanism the sound from the tape was great, better than newer models available on Amazon. This unit was a later release by Sony, being released in 1987, 8 years after the initial release of the Sony TPS-L2 Walkman of fame (recently popularized by Guardians of the Galaxy). It amazes me that after 32 years it still sounds great and plays tapes without ruining them. The unit is small enough to fit into a large front pocket, and although it does have a belt clip I wouldn't trust it with my life. First day using the clip the Walkman slid off and collided with concrete. Amazing, the crash did little to it other than a few dents and dislodge the door flap. I can't imagine an iPhone surviving a similar crash. Pros: -Great sounding with both the radio and cassettes. -Easy to use. -Seems to have a great battery life. -Can really take a beating. -Easy to repair. -FM and AM radio. -Has a switch for Normal and Metal tape types. Cons: -The belt clip is useless. -The door flap isn't too well secured. -Rubber belts leave a mess after melting (however it was the best solution at the time). The Walkman is a classic,instantly recognizable, and will endure in the memories of those who used it.
