Toshiba PC-5460 cassette deck

The Toshiba PC-5460 cassette deck, with an all-sendust recording head. Dolby FM and Direct Access feather-touch controls

When you buy any of Toshiba's cassette decks, you can take excellent sound for garanted.

Toshibs PC-5460 , for example, has inaudible wow and flutter; just 0,05% WRMS. A high Signal-to-Noise ratio; 69 dB (±3 dB, Dolby On, CrO₂). And wide frequency response 20 - 18,000 Hz (FeCr).

But Toshiba goes beyond specs, to professional features for continued superior performance. Consider the 5460's All-Sendust recording head. It stands up to wear much better than hardened permalloy. And it's noot susceptible to the "chipping" that can occur with ferrite heads.

Then, get your hands on our Direct Access feather-touch controls. The merest touch allows you to switch from one function to another without pressing the Stop button or jamming the tape.

And the Toshiba 5460's front-loading cassette compartment has an oil-damped soft eject mechanism, for smooth and convenient operation.

Of course, almost every cassette deck has Dolby these days. But few have Dolby FM as well. Toshiba does, with a switchable MPX filter circuit. So you can feed Dolby FM broadcasts through the 5460 to get cleaner sound. Whether or not you're recording.

The 5460 tape transport is DC servomotor-controlled.

And you'll appreciate the three-function meter plus LED peak indicator. And our new edit/fade control

Naturally, the 5460 has all the standards as well. Like three-position bias and equalization switches. Mike/line mixing. And circuitry to accommodate an accessory timer.
