[QUOTE="Mars, post: 88753, member: 817"] I have good memories of tapes. Those compilation tapes especially. In the 1980's I had a tape of Saturday Night in San Francisco by Al Di Meola/McLauchlin/Paco Da Lucia that sounded fantastic. Admittedly it was recorded from a LP record. I have the cd of the same music, and I cannot get into it. It all sounds harsh and lifeless. My crate of cassettes are still in the garage, waiting for me to find a good tape deck to play them on. We also used to adjust the azimuth every time we played a tape, for best hi frequency response. The jewelry screwdriver was next to the deck. And cleaned the head with surgical spirits. As a matter of fact, before I made any recordings, I cleaned the head and capstan of my Denon three head deck. [/QUOTE]
