In Reply to: RE: Best Chrome/Normal playing deck............. posted by RedGrant on June 16, 2009 at 22:07:55
Hi:
If you are listening solely to commerical pre-recorded cassettes in Chrome/120uS format, then you don't have much choice other than the Nakamichi CR-7, Cassette deck 1, DR-1 or the DRAGON. These four decks all have the playback head azimuth adjustment ( the first three are manual, while the last is automatic ). Marantz also has a deck that comes with playback head azimuth adjustment but it is impossible to find in the U.S.
Pre-recorded commerical cassettes with Chrome/70uS as well as Real-Time have better sonic performance than Chrome/120uS but the number of releases are not as large. I have over 5000 pre-recorded commerical cassettes and I listen to them mainly through my three Nak DRAGONs. I prefer the DRAGON over the CR-7 but this is soley personal. Others have their choices; with all respect.
Hope this help,
Mike
