Thanks for the corrrection, Swampwalker- it's been a few years since I've been involved with tapes. Although, I seem to recall at some point that chrome and metal meant the same thing as far as bias was concerned and that high quality non-metal tapes like the TDK SA was the mid-bias setting. Perhaps the standards were changed at some point as even higher bias tapes were introduced?
Question about cassette player settings
Bought a used Nakamichi cassette player (LX-5) with no manual. The player offers 3 Tape Selections - EX, SX, and ZX. I'm familiar with Type I, II and IV tapes, but not with the Nakamichi settings. What do I use? Also, the player offers 2 EQ settings - 70 and 120. Again I'm at a loss about which to use since neither my pre-recorded nor blank tapes indicate an EQ setting. Can anyone give me some guidance? Thanks and have a Merry Christmas.
