best low $ auto-reverse cassette decks?

Denon used to make some fairly decent inexpensive decks. Check out for one of those used. I have a Denon DRW 840 dual well deck I bought in the mid 90's and am quite happy with it. My only complaints are that it's not a three head deck and that the wells aren't backlit - that would have been a nice touch. Spend as much as you can afford if you have a large tape collection as it will pay you back over time by not eating your tapes plus you'll have better sound to boot.

Good one bug.

I had a dual deck Yamaha that did all sorts of auto-reverse, I think it had three or four different settings. Also had headphone jack. I sold it for $40 about six months ago. I think it was a CDC-755 or something like that. Maybe a 655?? Anyway, was built great and sounded the same. So, I would look into older Yamaha models.

Inexpensive worthy single well decks by Dual, Onkyo, Denon. A used 2 head Nakamichi will cost $375 to $475 or more depending on model.
