Re: Tape or CD?

Xactly Bobp.
Sitting around, pushing buttons, is not my idea of fun, or mixing, and thus, no joy. Segways and dubbing (mixing sounds from movies, TV, found sounds, etc...) and putting it all together so that it flows and rocks your sox, now that is ultimate fun!

I also have a Nak 600, and as oldglide states, these old Naks are a lot more bulletproof than you might think. Sure, 25-30 year old gear needs a cleaning and lube on occasion, but I swear, this morning I was amping up my old Tandberg upright MKII, and that thing has more depth, balls, and bass stage than you could believe. I'd say it surpasses most "normal" CD players I've ever heard.

And that was a copy tape, from my Tandberg 3014 onto my Nak LX-5.
Analog brilliance. You can't replace it!

If someone wants a CD mix, I'll take my tape mix and burn a CD through my Harmon Kardon digital recorder. Sounds terrific!
