Stereo Cassette Deck
A front-loading model with all the features of full-sized units, the SD-L50 nonetheless is an incredibly compact 25 cm wide by 10,7 cm high, making it one of the most compact cassette decks currently available.
Circuitry and head design have been reinforced to give superb sound quality from the new high performance metal tapes. IC logic controls with a stroke of just 0,3 mm contribute to the positive feeling of operation, while the dual motor drive transport holds wow and flutter to below 0,04% (WRMS). The deck can also be set to perform automatic rewind/repeat play of one side of a tape up to 8 times or until halted manually. For accurate record level settings, 2 rows of 12 LEDs display peaks in 3 colors from -20 to -2 dB (green), 0 to +4 dB (yellow) and +6 to +10 dB (red)
By adding the optional MT-50 timer, the unit can be set for unattended recording, and in the timer's Tape Time mode, digital countdown display of the time remaining on the tape facilitates recording operations. The RC-R300 remote control system (another recommended optional) can be utilized for operation of all deck transport functions from up to six meters (20 feet) away.
