when yamaha's audio engineers decided to design a truly high performance cassette deck, they didn't overlock any details. First, they chose a two-motor transport, but redesigned the system to eliminate the instabilities of conventional two-motor designs. For the Rec/Playback head, they used the finest material available - Sendust - formed by a unique Yamaha process for absolute purity. With 5-layer core lamination and low impedance design, this head is superior to ordinary types in all respects. And for the best possible dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratio, the dbx system was included.
Add to this features like fine bias adjust, focus switch, metal compatibility and Dolby NR, and the result is the K-960 - a triumph of cassette deck engineering.
