Perfect... but lacks a panning option

Published on 05/08/25 at 01:20

Technical Specifications

Device type: Stereo cassette deck
Speeds: 4.76 cm/sec (normal) and 9.5 cm/sec (high)
Tape types: Compatible with four cassette types (ferric, chrome, ferro-chrome, metal)
Channels: Two, each controlled by a single volume potentiometer
Noise reduction: Dolby Noise Reduction (Dolby NR) system

Positives

Speed versatility: Choice between normal and high speed, handy depending on your needs and tape length.
Compatibility: Handles all tape types — ferric, chrome, ferro-chrome, or metal.
Dolby NR noise reduction: Reduces noise without sacrificing too much high-end, which is a good trade-off.

Negatives

No panning mixer: If you're only using one channel, the sound is either left or right. A panning mixer would have been a valuable addition.
Limited features: Maybe a higher-end version of this model would offer more control, but I can’t confirm that.

This player is solid in its field, but the lack of mixing features might frustrate users looking for more audio control.
