Hi everyone,
Happy new year to the community. I am trying to find a way to use my old Walkman cassette so that I can covert my cassettes to cd. I have a USB cassette player that works but it sounds a bit tinny, whereas the Walkman is far superior, any suggestion will be very welcomed.
Thanks in advance.

Use a Griffin iMic, or something like it.

Hi
I just tried using the IMic and my Walkman, unfortunately as the Walkman has one socket for earphones and the other socket is for a 3.5v mains plug. I am not sure if there is anything I can do. I do have a conventional cassette recorder/player but it needs to be connected to an amplifier. That is all very well, however, I am concerned about connecting the amplifier to the mac mini. Before I do, is there any special adapter leads that I need to use, I am a little naive on this matter.
Thank you

Connect the earphone jack on the Walkman to the input of the iMic. You will need an appropriate cable, which I believe will have 3.5 mm stereo phone plugs on each end.
I'm not getting why the iMic can't be used. Don't you just plug it into the headphone port on the Walkman and the USB port on the Mac?
Has anyone linked an old Sony Walkman cassette player to a Mac mini
