Whats playing on your system today?

Agreed on the (non)value of getting the CR-1A restored by Willy. 

But, just for kicks I checked on eBay for used Nak decks, and all the CR-1A’s are going for almost twice what I paid. A sign that cassette are really making a comeback? I could always find them for close to what I got mine for. I may take mine to Play It Again Sam here in town to get it further cleaned-up, adjusted if/as necessary, and belts replaced (with good OEM ones hopefully).

Did check out the other Nak 3 head models on eBay, and man, they seem to be going for a premium these days. Probably not something I would necessarily buy on eBay without knowing more. Once you get to $650+, I would want to know it has at least been serviced well.

Unfortunately yes to pricing of 3 head Nak decks.
Any that are in fair condition and working right now are going to be $500 plus minimum.
As an example I bought my zx7 for $850 working which was a fair price and then spent near that again getting it restored to factory spec.
But really that is it, im done for now, will never need anything better.

You two could be a bad influence on me :-)

It is a fact that if you want an analog recording of some of the 90,s albums you have to look for the cassette tape..
