can you plug a portable tape player into it so that a cassette tape ( i have lots) can be heard thru the speakers?

I would say so. It has a USB port and on the back there are two RCA plugs. You'll just need the correct adaptors for your cassette player. As I've stated, this is a really nice unit. The record player just isn't that great.

No, unfortunately you can't. I too, have lots of tapes but there is only a USB port, no plug.

There is an auxiliary port on the record player. So I think its definitely possible if you have the cable.

I reckon if your portable CD player has a earphone 3.5mm port, it should be hook able. But I'm not really sure.

Hey Carey..Yes you can. Of course it is a headphone jack, so your speakers must have the same plug, and either be powered or be the little ones that plug into the headphone jack. The player has no other outputs, but one could possibly plug this into a full powered home audio system or boom box if it has an "audio in" port. Good powered speakers would sound the best. here's a handy link for you: http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-6450_7-5136402-1.html They require batteries and/or ac adapter; I'd recommend rechargeable batteries if you use speakers a lot, like hours every day. You can get an ac adapter at your local thrift store if you know what to look for. Good Luck and best to ya! -J Hey Carey..Yes you can.

No, unless your cassette player can be connected with a USB cord. This is has a docket for an iPod or iphone 5, plays the FM stereo only, and functions as a CD player.

If you have a tape player in your car then just use a simple tape adapter, like the kind you would use for a cd player. I get great sound with mine!

If your MP3 player can record in stereo from the tape deck then yes it can. Make sure you use the proper cable.

This is for car that only have tape players so that you can play cd's and ipod's from portable players

Yes, as long as you feed the output of the player to a standard mini stereo phone plug.

It doesn't play cassettes in the unit, but it has an input jack and a short connection cable. That can be hooked up to any device with a headphone output. So it can act as a portable speaker for cell phones, MP3 players, laptops etc. That works very well.

hi. the answer is yes and yes.mp3 thru rca audio in and old speaker wire directly into the speaker inputs or put a banana plug on the ends. either way is good.

Sorry I won't be able to completely answer your question as I am out of town, returning next Wednesday. The unit was purchased to copy cassette tapes to CD's. I have the unit connected to my receiver and can monitor the tape being recorded to cd, and can play back the cd. I do not believe speakers can be connected directly to the unit. The unit would have to have an AUX input to do the vinyl LP thing and since I am away, I cannot verify that feature. I can check it when I return if that's any help. My email is rcrector@verizon.net if you haven't found an answer by next Wednesday.......Ron Sorry I won't be able to completely answer your question as I am out of town, returning next Wednesday.

according to the documentation. I think you can hook up an mp3 player via the headphone jack. That is what they mean by Portable Audio Ready (PAR)

Can I hook up this cassette player to my Sony stereo receiver & just listen to my tapes?

This does not have a built-in speaker. You can listen to the tape through the computer or with earphones.

If you have a phantom power supply, yes. This is a condenser mic and needs phantom power to operate. Look for a phantom power supply on amazon or guitar center, etc. they are about $30. Then connect mic to it, and output from power supply to your cassette tape deck. The sound quality will be awesome. :). Info@thesoundboxstudio.com if you need more help.

Yes you can, but you will need an auxiliary cable. Using the auxiliary cable will not allow the speaker dock to charge your mp3 player nor will it allow you to utilize the remote. However, it will amp your sound.

I have not tried that, but I have done it the other way around ... cassette to CD. I have found the unit to be very versatile and I've been very pleased with it. Note, however, that I am not a music or stereo equipment aficionado.
