Not everyone likes to purchase deck for their daily usage, but the pyle high end tape deck would be an anomoly. The FF&Rewind dual cassette deck could've been designed better. It provides very low noise signal and very low wobble or perturbation and good consistent signal level. It has rock steady tape motion and the sound of the transfers seems flawless. There's an included jumper that's shown on the diagram, between the recorder and a "PA" unit with no clue left as to what it does.
The unit does work quite well and sounds good. The micro replacement from the last position of where the tape sits adjacent to the last position before the FF&Rewind helps from 'tape magnetic transfer' as heard on the vocal bridge in Led Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love.Why We Like This:
- Easy to set up with tuner
- Cheaply made and just loading the cassette is a battle
- Purpose fluorescent display for ease of use
Tascam high end Tape Deck

The tascam high end tape deck should be able to handle its purpose and duties with ease. The Tascam deck feels very solid and well-made. This unit can play, record or duplicate all audio cassettes (including metal tapes) and utilizes Dolby noise reduction systems. It does have a noise reduction feature which works very well. There is a physical white switch marked "Voltage Selector" with "230" and "120" settings on the back of the unit. The USB digital out is very good for digitizing cassettes.
This deck has outstanding quality and is undoubtedly more reliable than the ion, marantz profesional and similar clones. The sound transfer quality is absolutely PERFECT. The deck has a "noise reduction" switch on the front right bottom that says "playback only.Why We Like This:
- An included dedicated wireless remote control
- Good for copying cassette to cassette
- Just straight recording without any dolby noise reduction
- Audio playback quality is the best of any tascam cassette decks
Technics high end Tape Deck
Buy on Amazon
The #2 deck works really good with both rubber bits grabbing as they should which is good because that is the most important of the 2 decks. It is handled by dolby b and dolby c, and the deck also features the most advanced cassette sonic expansion system, dolby hx. It offers one-touch insertion and ejecting of tapes. If you need continuous sound, the unit can be set to play both decks in a loop for up to 24 hours.
Although record levels can be set manually, the unit boasts intelligent automatic record leveling so you can simply press record and walk away. It is provided for both decks via a fluorescent display, and double-speed editing is a snap with the RS-tr373's synchro-start and stop functions.
The rear panel features rca record inputs, as well as an rca output for connection to your home audio system. If you have a technics amplifier, its remote will control this deck. The sound is very nostalgic, right down to the scratches on the records used in the recordings.Why We Like This:
- Fluorescent display with electronic counter for both decks
- 2 -motor full-logic control, powered eject system
- Good brand reputation
