I play Nakamichi 682ZX deck almost every day. Sure, my Nottingham Spacedeck sounds better but tape even in a cassette has its appeal. I also use Panasonic AG-7350 SVHS to play music. So, I miss nothing, I have it. What else should I add to this analog only set up. The answer is obvious - R2R two track.
For those who always dreamed of owning a Nakamichi

And to think they used to be just some little tape deck company.
You've come a long way baby!
