Perfect Path "Solutions" (PPS) eMat

My preferred medium would be cassettes made from records (singles, preferably). Well, they are, when it comes to realistic sound, probably two steps ahead of short wave radio, but it is ok to like the ugly duckling at times. Love has no eyes. Or ears, in this case.

Mark Levinson? What Mark Levinson? Unless it is Becker Mexico Electronic Diversity, it has to be Blaupunkt Mannheim 24.

Now, you could have an older version of Mexico with tubes, if that floats your boat.

Behind the White Wheel: Becker Mexico Alive

As I said, Mark Levinson? What Mark Levinson?

This cassette talk is reminding me of my pre-audiophile pure music loving days. I had a bunch of phish shows on tape and used to carry the choice sets around in my Chevy s10. And when I was young I had one of those pioneer multi-cassette changers because... I'm not really sure why. I guess it looked cool. I also lusted quite strongly after the Nak my father's friend had in his restaurant. It was one of those that flipped the cassette for you. Such an amazing mechanism really.

I had a Nak deck in my yellow Honda Civic. Fed it with a Dragon. The little sucker maxed out at 90 mph on the flat. Good thing. My brain had only two speeds, on and off.

Mark Levinson has been providing the upgrade audio systems in Lexus models since 2001.

^^^ I have a 2005 Lexus LS 430 with the Mark Levinson upgrade. Just about ready to turn to 72,000 miles on the odometer.
