EscapeVelocity on Nostr: People used to get all worked up about Cassette Deck specs with the higher end units ...
People used to get all worked up about Cassette Deck specs with the higher end units being speced up to 17 or 18 khz before being 3 decibels down, but I always preferrred cassette decks that rolled off the upper frequencies at aroud 11-13 khz (3db down).
For the same reason that I prefer silk dome tweeters, which have a smooth sound to them, not harsh.
Personally I love this 1970s Pioneer KP-500 Cassette Radio.
