VINTAGE WORKING BLACK NAKAMICHI CR-3A HI FIDELITY 3 HEAD STEREO CASSETTE RECORDER. DESCRIPTION OF ITEM : THIS IS A NAKAMICHI CR-3A DISCRETE HEAD CASSETTE DECK. NAKAMICHI BILLS THE CR-3A AS THE LEAST EXPENSIVE CASSETTE DECK THAT OFFERS THE THREE ESSENTIALS OF NAKAMICHI RECORDING TECHNOLOGY. THOSE ESSENTIALS, AS THE COMPANY SEES IT, ARE THE DISCRETE THREE-HEAD APPROACH, IN WHICH AZIMUTHS OF THE RECORDING AND PLAYBACK GAPS ARE INDIVIDUALLY ADJUSTABLE; THE ASYMMETRICAL DUAL-CAPSTAN DRIVE, IN WHICH DIFFERENT CAPSTAN DIAMETERS AND ROTATION SPEEDS KEEP MECHANICAL RESONANCES FROM BUILDING UP; AND ELECTRONICS DESIGNED TO ACHIEVE RECORDING LEVELS OF +10-DB WITH METAL TAPE. IN ORDER TO KEEP ITS PRICE AS MODERATE AS IT IS AND STILL MAINTAIN SUCH HIGH AUDIO QUALITY, THE CR-3A IS FREE OF NEARLY ALL FRILLS (SUCH AS AUTOMATIC TAPE CUEING). SOME USERS MAY DESIRE A MORE COMPLETE MEANS OF TRIMMING THE TAPE/DECK MATCH: BIAS AND SENSITIVITY CONTROLS, WITH SOME OBJECTIVE METHOD OF CALIBRATION. WHILE THESE FEATURES ARE AVAILABLE IN THE CR-4 (AS THE MANUAL KEEPS REMINDING US), MANY USERS WILL BE HAPPIER WITH FEWER ADJUSTMENTS TO WORRY ABOUT. THE CR-3A’S RESPONSE CURVES SHOW CLEARLY HOW LITTLE SUCH CONTROLS ARE NEEDED AS LONG AS YOU STICK REASONABLY CLOSE TO NAKAMICHI’S MAINSTREAM TAPE FORMULATIONS. WHEN YOU DO, YOU’LL FIND THAT PERFORMANCE IS THE ESSENCE OF THE CR-3A. WE HAVE TESTED THIS ITEM AND IT WORKS WITH NO ISSUES.
