Cassettes. You cannot be serious. If you're into tape get something with a decent speed. Ditch the compact toys and get a reel to reel deck.

Cassettes run at 1.875" per second.  Reel to reel runs at 7.5" per second or 15" per second, which is the professional standard.

I disagree."

That's what I thought too perkri. I guess he didn't mean it.

I still have my nakamichi dragon deck in my system. Does it sound “great” no does it sound really good hell yes. I used it to record live radio broadcasts of concerts. Summerfest in Milwaukee would broadcast the main act every night. I have some great shows that you can’t get anywhere. Back in the 80’s audition cassettes were sent out from artistic as a cheap and easy process to market them selfs. I have an original Yngwie  Malmsteen demo tape from before anyone had heard of him. I still listen to it today.
