What a great piece...
Just read the article while playing a selection of Bach organ works on my Nakamichi DR-1 three-head deck (the tape was recorded in '86 in Dolby C on a TDK MA90 cassette through my Nakamichi DRAGON, and it still sounds as good as the day I recorded it). I admit I hardly listen to my vast cassette collection anymore, but every now and then I still get the urge to listen to a recording I don't have on CD, and I still enjoy its sound. With a little head and pinch roller cleaning, my tapes have withstood the test of time and still produce a good, clean copy of the original source, whether it was LP or CD, or even live! My entire family gave up on the medium years ago, but I just refuse to let it go. If my DR-1 gives up the ghost someday, I'll look for another Nakamichi to replace it. What can I say...I'm a cassette junkie!:thmbsp:
