RE: I love CDs

"Good cassette tapes on a good cassette player can beat most CDs when it comes to musical sound. They also can have better high frequency extension."

Cannot agree here....... Although cassette recordings have the advantage of no active digital conversion and zero RFI, even when using a top-of-the-line Tandberg or Nakamichi cassette deck, the HF extension is awash, the dynamic capability is limited, and the noise floor is a good 20 dB higher...... Relative to CD.
