Cassette Tape

I never said you were a Johnny come lately. But Heifetz’ violin on cassette played on an inexpensive Walkman cassette player sounds fuller, richer and more musical, more like Heiftetz’ Violin, as it were, than the very same piece on digital. More air and sweeter too. I would never argue that digital is not more accurate. 😀

Maxell xlii 90. The "S" version is "better" but usually unnecessary and not worth the extra cost, IMO. I recently sold off all of my 800+ tape collection.

I use the same cassettes I bought in early 70´s, both at home and in car. With a few exceptions all of them are as good as back in the day, mechanically and in sound quality. I buy new and vintage cassette tapes off eBay. Never liked digital´s dull and edgy sound.

You can get blank audio cassette tapes on Amazon. Most of them in 5-packs, 8-packs, 10-packs, etc. come to about $1.25 to $1.50 per cassette.

Absolutely correct, Amazon has some pretty darn good deals on cassette tapes of all varieties.
Good place to look imho
