Now, despite this brand being derided online (on top of it being pretty unknown if you&rsquo;re not from Europe) to me it sounds really good. I&rsquo;m no audiophile but I care deeply about my gear and music. If it sounds good to me I&rsquo;m happy and this deck sits firmly in the &ldquo;sounds good&rdquo; category to me. It&rsquo;s not like I&rsquo;m expecting miracles, we&rsquo;re talking about a entry-level <em>cassette</em> deck here. Type 1, type 2, record, Dolby B and that&rsquo;s pretty much it feature-wise. Another reason I like it so much actually, not to mention how much easier is it to do repairs on.</p>
