Re: [ARSCLIST] Plus Deck
Judging from the market-targeting and price point, I'd say this is many leagues below a
studio-quality cassette deck. It looks like a cheapo in-dash mechanism grafted onto a disk drive
tray. Made in Korea to a low price point.
What's the problem with taking a good cassette deck and plugging it into the line inputs on a
soundcard? What am I missing here?

I'd like to know if this deck has adjustable azimuth for various
cassettes that may have been recorded on poor decks... And when it will
work on Macs! I see they are looking for Mac programmers.
There are so many old cassette decks in the world, and some good ones,
such that unless this has a really good playback mechanism it might be
useless. Anyone know?
My experience with old cassettes is that they saound as good as they
ever did, if they haven;t been mistreated physically or played on
unmaintained decks (like people who never degauss the heads, etc.)

What I'd like to get from this list is an appraisal of the PlusDeck and a
volunteer to place the result on a server or help in finding one. My
difficulty is that I am extremely hard of hearing and don't want to spend
hundreds of hours producing something of poor quality, nor to do a lot of
work and being unable to find anyone willing to host the results. I would
also like to know about how cheap and medium grade C-90s deteriorate over
time.
