RE: Which cassette deck sounds like a record player...

Maybe if you owned a Nakimichi Dragon, but your own home made, fist generation tapes can sound very good. I still use my Denon DRS-801 from time to time and I have a Techinics that is auto reverse, has Dolby B&C...the DBX I do not use as the pumping and breathing don't work for me, but both make excellent tapes using the better TDK and Maxell brands.

I mainly use mine now for when friends have tapes they want to transfer to CD. I am onto the Tascam line of SDHC card portable recorders that can do 2496 or 24/192 and sound amazing. One you use these you can't go back to tape. www.sweetwater.com has some great buys on these great recorders. The best would be their DA-3000 that can also do DSD.
