Free U.S. Shipping Over $99
Step back into the golden age of portable music with this professionally refurbished Sony Walkman TPS-L2, the iconic cassette player that started it all. First released in 1979, this groundbreaking device features dual headphone jacks for shared listening, independent left and right channel volume controls and the signature ‘hotline’ button for quick communication without pausing your music. With its durable metal chassis and unmistakable blue and silver design, the TPS-L2 delivers an authentic vintage experience for collectors and cassette enthusiasts alike. Known for being the first company to make music truly portable, Sony's Walkman series is as iconic today as it was in 1980s.
You'll notice this early model features the original "Stereo" branding on the front instead of "Walkman." Why is that? When the TPS-L2 was released, Sony still didn't have a name picked out for their portable music player. The second-generation Walkmans were the first to feature the Walkman name and branding.
