Sorry, about that I was in a hurry and deleted the post in haste during editing it.Like I was saying I had the same problem with my 2003 Infiniti QX4 audio system, which is made by Bose that came with a cd, tuner and cassette audio combo system. I have tried to play my precious Nakamichi 680ZX prerecorded tape collections into it I was very disappointed at the result as they sounded like hammered shit however, but yet the commercial pre recorded tapes sounded wonderful go figure eh!. Having said that as much as I like the sound of the commercial pre recorded tapes but still it can’t hold a candle to well-recorded tapes recorded from an excellent tape deck. So then, I put my Tandberg TCD-440A cassette deck to work and recorded my favorite songs unto it then I played them back to my SUV car’s audio system voila! Gone was the muted and constricted sound if anything the sound became more open, airy and very musical. As you have guessed most of the prerecorded tapes that I’m playing in my SUV now were recorded from the Tandberg TCD-440A cassette deck.
BTW, I have compared this machine to a friend’s Naks Dragon, ZX9 and ZX7 the sound was very comparable except that Tandberg was a little bit musical to my ear while the Dragon have more resolving capabilities.
Nak 660 ZX, but your post says 680ZX.I wish I had a 440; I have a stored TCD 310. I bought a 660ZX for my brother (under $80! shipped) last year. Although it had a bad meter which the seller showed on his ebay ad (right needle only), it was otherwise just a bit dirty. Sounds wonderful and records tapes which play back perfectly on my 682ZX.
it's 660ZX. The meter on mine was doing the same I had it fixed about 2 years ago and since then this deck was placed in my basement's permanent museum display along with my other antiques audio system such as the Harman Kardon and Sony 870 ES 3-head cassette deck systems, 1940 Roger Majestic am/fm tube radio, 1940 Loewe Opta German Made tube Console stereo system just to name but a few.BTW, I have a Wurlitzer Jukebox from the 1970 being rebuilt hopefully it'll be ready before the new year. I'm not sure where I'm going to put it as I'm running out of room in the basement.
I was lucky to find an excellent working Tandberg TCD-440A as they're hard to come by.
