Commentary
This is a front load type stereo cassette deck that inherits the functions of high-end machines.
Equipped with a full auto shut-off mechanism, the mechanism is automatically released when the tape ends regardless of the position of the selector switch in the REC/Play/FF position.
Equipped with a delay circuit using 7 transistors, all circuits operate 3.5 seconds after turning on the power switch, eliminating pop noise.
Super hard permalloy head is used for the head.
There was a walnut cabinet as an option sold separately.
