Akai GXC-325D tape deck

Dual Monitoring Cassette Stereo Tape Deck

With taped music, as in five card stud, you'll always get the results you want when you play with a deck that always delivers what you want. Take this deck, one of the new cassette decks from Akai.

The GXC-325D. It comes stacked with features to make your music sound clearer, and richer. It has a three head function, with separate recording and playback heads for wider frequency response. It comes with a closed loop double capstan, which maintains proper back tension, and perfect tapw and head contact.

 

The recording and playback heads of this new 3-head system are Akai's revolutionary GX Heads and are joined for perfect parallelism of recording and playback head gaps. This combined with the Closet Loop Double Capstan system and AC Servo Motor of this model clearly makes it the leader in the field of cassette recording.

Two each capstans and pinch rollers are used, one each of which is positioned in parallel at either side of the head block for stable tape speed and tape tension. This shuts out the adverse influence from outside the "closed" area between capstans so that there is no tape vibration and head-to-tape contact is perfect. Some of the other merits of this system include:

Perfect tracking and the elimination of azimuth alignment adjustment mechanisms, beacons, etc.

Better Signal-to-Noise Ratio and a wider dynamic range

Wow and Flutter reduced to 0,55% WRMS and sound drop-out minimized

3-head system facilitates Dual Monitoring and because of head portioning, there is no time lag between recording and playback signals during monitoring

Intermodulation suppressed for clearer playback

C.P.G. [Center Pole Frequency Generated] system of AC Servo Motor results in greater inertia and increassed output for extremely quiet operation and accurate motor revolutions

Performance not influenced by cassette unevenness

Completely stable operation and incomparably clear recording and playback tone quality

Lasting new machine performance
