Aiwa PX-197 Portable Cassette Player
The Aiwa PX-197 is a slim, stereo portable cassette player designed for personal listening. It features auto reverse playback, Dolby B noise reduction and Aiwa’s XBS (Extra Bass System) for enhanced low-frequency sound. Compact and lightweight, it runs on standard AA batteries and includes a belt clip for on-the-go use. The PX-197 reflects late-era cassette design with a focus on portability and clear, punchy audio.
Take a break from digital media and live in the moment. Rewind, fast-forward, flip the tape, watch it spin. Slow down and embrace the analog experience that is music on magnetic tape.

Our vintage refurbished players are professionally restored by a skilled team of technicians to ensure they perform like new while retaining their original charm. Each unit is carefully disassembled, inspected and cleaned. Key components such as drive belts, idler tires and pinch wheels are replaced, playback speed is calibrated, and the tapehead is cleaned and demagnetized. The volume potentiometer is deoxidized, and outer housings are polished for a clean finish.
Please note, these players have lived a full life before arriving at Retrospekt and may show minor signs of previous use. However, every unit is guaranteed to be fully functional, clean and ready to deliver a reliable and authentic retro experience.
