All the information below is valid for purchases made on or after 01/06/2024. For purchases made before this date, the warranty details will be provided on your sales receipt or can be obtained by getting in touch with our Customer Service Department.
Please Note: Our free extended warranties are only available for brand new products purchased directly from our website. Any purchase made through any other selling platforms (such as eBay and Amazon) will be subject to the Standard Warranty Period only.
Our warranty table indicates the standard warranty period supplied by each manufacturer along with which products are covered by our free 6 Year extended warranty. In the event of a claim, Peter Tyson provides and administers the extended warranty. This extended warranty is on the same basis and terms as the manufacturer’s original warranty, where possible using the same official service providers, giving you total peace of mind for the extended warranty period. In the event of a claim, please contact Peter Tyson in the first instance. Claims for work done by others won't be accepted unless previously agreed.
Please note: We may run promotions and offer longer warranties than advertised below. These will be detailed on the individual product pages and will also be visible on your order invoice.
Should you wish to contact the manufacturer direct for any reason, we have also provided this information within the associated brand sections.
Any extended warranties offered by Peter Tyson are free. We do not include any form of insurance terms such as accidental damage or loan equipment cover. Warranties can only be fulfilled to goods purchased and delivered within the UK. In order for us to conduct a Warranty claim for goods taken outside of the UK, the goods will have to be returned at your own expense. Alternatively, you can make the goods available for collection at a UK address. This also applies to goods delivered to shipping companies. Subsequent to a successful warranty claim, goods can only be re-delivered to a UK address.
Free warranties provided for TVs, are provided by the Manufacturer/Supplier, and are bound by their own individual terms and conditions. If you need further clarification, please contact us.
All Peter Tyson Extended Warranties are only valid for the original purchaser and are not transferable.

TEAC have endeavoured to create an all-in-one system for those who love to reminisce in the nostalgic, physical era of musical playback. The AD-850-SE is a multi-purpose unit with convenience in mind. It can be used to play CDs and cassette tapes or you can effortlessly convert cassettes and transfer to CD or USB flash drives. As cassette tapes are transitioning into the vintage class, it's now easier than ever to preserve the audio.
AD-850-SE
USB flash drive recording and playback supported
In addition to recording from CDs, cassette tapes and external input devices to USB flash drives (as MP3 files), CDs, MP3 files on USB flash drives and external input devices can also be recorded to cassette tapes. Recorded files will be saved to automatically generated folders according to the source (CD, LINE or TAPE) on USB flash drives, enabling easy digital to analogue conversion without a computer.
Microphone input built in
A mic input jack is built into the front of the unit, allowing you to record a mic connected to this unit by itself. You can also mix in the mic signal when playing back and recording CDs, cassettes and USB flash drives.
* The mic sound cannot be recorded when recording from a CD to a USB flash drive.
Echo effect
Echo can be added to the sound from the mic connected to this unit. The front panel switch can be used to set the effect to two levels or turn it off. With the AD-850-SE and a mic, you can easily enjoy karaoke.
* You will also need a separate amplifier and speakers for karaoke.
Echo explanation
This adds reverberations to the original sound. The original sound is repeated with various amounts of delay and damping over time to produce an almost natural reverberation sound, similar to that heard in a hall or studio.
Cassette deck has all the key functionality
The cassette deck uses a two-head one-way design for recording and playback. It supports cassette tape that use normal, chrome and metal (playback only) formulations/positions. This model provides all key functionality, including pitch control with a +/-10% adjustment range and timer recording and playback.
CD player supports CD-R/RW discs and MP3 file playback
In addition to audio CDs, the CD player can play CD-R/RW discs containing MP3 files. During MP3 playback, information including ID3 tags and file names* is shown. Various playback modes include program, shuffle and repeat (one track, all tracks or program).
* File name display supports half-width English letters and numbers (single-byte characters). Names that use full-width characters (double-byte characters), including Japanese, cannot be shown correctly.
Extensive USB flash drive recording and playback functions
The repeat playback function can be used together with various other playback modes, including continuous, shuffle and program. The synchronised start function, which automatically starts playback of the sound source (CD or TAPE), makes recording to USB flash drives much more straightforward.
Convenient timer function
A timer can be used to start cassette recording and playback as well as CD and USB flash drive playback.
* A commercially-available timer must be purchased separately.
