Just wondered since I have one that I just don't use anymore. I think its an LX-5 3 head machine. I'd rather someone use it.

They still make some small systems, and car audio, although they haven't updated car decks in about 5 years now, and they are getting harder to find.

I got an old Nakamichi 600 cassette deck in a box up in the attack. Sure was a great unit in it's day but now cassettes are just a hassle.

I occasionally use a CR-7A. Still sounds great.

I had an LX5 nice rig. Then I went to a Pioneer CT1000 (?) because I could not afford he Nach 1000 (?) the one that spins the tape around when pressed reverse!

As I said I still have it and wondered If anyone would make me an offer. I'll be honest here, it probably needs a basic tuneup, and maybe calibrating, but If anyone mjust uses it to dub CD's for there car cassette deck, this is a great one to do it.

Just in case your not sure It is a 3 head machine.

Who uses car cassette decks any more?

Actually a few people I know do.I still use one, but have more tapes than I know what to do with.Besides I don't need CD's in my car anyways.

The best way I know of is on a USB thumb drive, loads of music and its small, and you can take it anywhere.

But I've always found cassettes to sound good enough for a car anyways, especially with all the ambient noise in a car.
