Sony Super EF - 1990 - US

These are surprising cassettes. To our ears, they appear to be cobalt doped. It's almost as if Sony used up their old HF-S or even HF-ES formulations by putting them in a cheaper shell and creating this line.

Under the radar? Oh yeah, unlike the Saehan version, these are superb Type 1s, up there with the best to our ears

NOTE 1: Only 2 available. RARE "Bargain Harold's" price sticker. Famous Toronto bargain 52 store chain that closed in 1990 after selling to K-Mart back in 1985. NOTE 2: No price sticker, light scuffing but multiple small rips, all repaired (see pics). One available here and one available on the SONY B-Grade list.

Sony produced the world's first portable music player, the Walkman in 1979. This line fostered a fundamental change in music listening habits by allowing people to carry music with them and listen to music through lightweight headphones. Walkman originally referred to portable audio cassette players. The company now uses the Walkman brand to market its portable audio and video players as well as a line of former Sony Ericsson mobile phones.
