Whats on your turntable tonight?

@tomic601 ,

The TD-700 had the manual head adjustment feature. The only other Nak deck w/ that, to my knowledge was the 1200. The 1200 eschewed the auto-reverse, for the more be prescise manual flip. Makes perfect sense. The tape head being stable.

I had a friend with a 70s Oldsmobile 442. It had a factory cassette deck with that same feature. Wow!

So at that time in history, someone in car manufacturing had enough pull to integrate this feature that even now would not be seen as having value.

I had a high end Concord deck in my Camaro

Re: The Pineapple Thief;
Catch the connection to Porcupine Tree and Stephen Wilson.  Catch the Drummer Gavin Harrison. Catch the time signature if you can.  Catch the culmination of musical ideas on the album “Dissolution”.  Catch the Mystery. Catch the Drift....

The stereo I put in my first car cost quite a lot more than the car.  Coaxials on the back deck baby -made cassettes sound so good. 

@uber John Klemmer was the make out music of choice in that car.
