I bought most of my VHS machines from WDS.
Nice outfits. I got a pristine Onkyo 301 on eBay for $25.
About what it's worth. It does a fine job playing mix tapes in the workshop though.
ive seen lots of realistic audio equipment in goodwills and other thrift stores. so i guess i have always thought of it to be a cheapo brand. 

Is their vintage stuff worth checking out?

You were only supposed to respond if you disagree.  And I disagree - I'll take Realistic over his listed brands.
"...@russ69 yeah, cassettes can be a pain sometimes. But, when they are in good playable condition, on a good cassette deck, they sound awesome...."

They never sounded awesome, they just didn't sound really bad...bad but not really bad. 
@dweller I went to cassettedeck.org and read about the TA2090 - those things are really nice! did you get yours new in the 80s?
@dweller I just looked up the TA2090; that is a nice looking deck! do you have one?
@russ69 yeah, cassettes can be a pain sometimes. But, when they are in good playable condition, on a good cassette deck, they sound awesome.

thanks guys. I really want a Nakamichi LX-5. Used to have one, but it broke and the repair shop couldn't fix it!
There's nothing to respond to. Nailed it.

Everyone scatter now....nothing to see here.
