Commentary
Stereo cassette deck with some functions omitted from RS-M50.
The drive motor is a digital FG servo motor.
In this motor, we propose a rotational speed drift of up to 0.15% by means of a circuit method that cancels the environmental change of the reference signal. We also reduce the influence of external noise by adopting a unique cutoff system for IC.
A vertical hold system is adopted for the tape travel system.
A high-precision flywheel with a diameter of 83.5 mm and dynamic balance of 1g ・ cm or less is adopted. In addition, a spring is provided to suppress thrust play in one direction to stabilize tape running.
LH head is adopted for the head.
As a noise reduction system, Dolby NR circuit is mounted.
This circuit has a built-in MPX filter to remove the pilot signal cause problems during FM air check.
It is equipped with a switching function of 3 stages of bias and 3 stages of equalizer in order to support various commercially available tapes.
It has a mixing circuit of MIC and LINE.
It is equipped with Q & Review mechanism and Quick Review mechanism.
Equipped with a full auto-stop mechanism that does not burden the mechanism at the time of rewind and FF.
Equipped with timer standby mechanism, you can record absence by connecting an optional timer.
Equipped with a rewind autoplay mechanism.
There are 2 color variations, silver and black.
