Escape from the ordinary.
Escape to the realism of Nakamichi sound.
The Nakamichi CR-7A Discrete-Head Cassette Deck - the most convenient - and sophisticated - recording instrument conceived by man. It selects equalization automatically - yet you can override the choice. It adjusts azimuth, level and bias automatically - yet you can match azimuth to any tape - from your armchair - with a wirless remote control. Its real-time counter readselapsedtime and time remaining. It will even fade out a recording just before the end - if you'd like.
