You are looking at a PHILIPS N2542 Vintage Hi-Fi cassette tape deck. Lovely vintage Hi-Fi cassette tape deck from Philips. All the Philips Axial capacitors have been replaced with brand new Vishay axial capacitors. No visible wear to the heads and pinch roller. Typical front-loading cassette deck with the cassette compartment located on the right side of the deck. Tape eject is operated mechanically and the cassette needs to be placed with the side to be played facing forward in the cassette well. Level meters used on the N2542 are twin analogue needle VU reading meters with peak indicator for easy adjustment of optimum recording level. Mechanical transport controls for reliable N2542 transport function selection. Cue and review can be used to easily and quickly locate the beginning of a passage. The Dolby-B system reduces tape hiss on tapes recorded on the N2542 by as much as 10 dB at the highest frequencies. The 19kHz multiplex pilot signal present in FM stereo broadcasts can cause false triggering of the noise reduction system. The switchable MPX filter of the N2542 filters out the pilot signal, and assuring proper Dolby processing of FM stereo programs.
