They made a pretty darn good tape, and employed HxPro as I remember. I especially liked their LED meters, very fast, accurate, with pretty green, yellow, red colors.
I musta made 400-500 cassette recordings back in the daze. The ones I made using the B&O 9000 decks were astonishingly good. The B&O decks would lay down a test signal on the tape and adjust the recording bias to perfectly suit the tape - very cool! And B&O worked hand in hand with Dolby labs to develop the HxPro circuitry. It took a pretty keen ear to tell the difference between a vinyl album and a tape of it made on the B&O - no kidding!!
