Personally, I have owned and used both the GX-R70EX and the Nak, and while the Akai had a better array of features, side-by-side comparisons of recorded material always favored the Nak with one caveat: You must use premium tapes on the Nak as there are only 3 pre-set bias settings. With any metal formulation tape the Nakamichi was superior in all aspects of recording/playback.

Also, if you have a large library of pre-recorded cassettes, the Nakamichi is also the better universal cassette playback deck.

Unfortunately, I have no experience with the GX-8 nor the Pioneer.
