Just got my Nak Dragon - Wow


I'd forgotten how good old fashioned cassettes were until I got my Nak Dragon today. I remember listening to 580 and 680 series decks in the 1980s when I was selling hi-fi. It's not quite as good as my vinyl front end (Platine Verdier, Schroeder Model 2 & Allaerts MC1B), but it's a lot, lot cheaper!

Sorry, but how does it sound so good if you are recording CDs?

Or do you have secret master tapes on cassette?

I am actually a big fan of the old Nakamichi products

I had a Nakamichi 250 in my car in high school
an Nakamich LX5 later in one of my favourite systems
and I also had 2 Dragons which I agree are very good

I used to agonize over cleaning records, stylus etc and then try to make great tapes for replay and/or the car

I think an old cassette deck or reel to reel would be great for archiving LPs

just not so sure its worth the time and effort to record digital sources which was my point
