Well Sep; you know how my tapes sound, I always try to squeeze the max out of it (no matter on what kind deck it will be played), so adjusting the bias by hand and ear makes the difference.
For the rest I keep saying: less is more:
Excepting the different pairs of cans that I use......

Nakamichi BX-150
I have had my Nakamichi BX-150 for about a month, now. I bought it at Innovative Audio. I had an in-store credit that was burning a hole in my pocket, so I used some of the credit towards this deck. What prompted me to get it, was I had signed up for the TH Nakamichi Travelling Tapes project some time ago, thinking my RX-505 would be out of the shop in time. But, the RX-505 is still awaiting repairs, and I, always, like participating in Travelling Tapes. I didn't want to lose an opportunity to contribute. Even if I didn't have a Nak deck to record with, I wanted to hear the tapes, regardless, as I was sure there would be some stellar recordings on them. And there are many!
This was the first time I have used my BX-150 to record and I hope to make a few more recordings with it. For an entry-level deck, it's good.
Here are a few video clips of songs played back on my BX-150 from the Maxell MX90 metal cassette, Tape 1 of 2 of the Nakamichi Travelling Tapes:

Thanks for your comments, Miles. This little Nak would love anything you might want to send my way. Progressive Rock is one of my favourite types of music to listen to. I just received three great tapes from Derek, two of them featuring some heavy-hitters for progressive rock: Gentle Giant and Emerson, Lake & Powell.

Used to have too many...
Hello Nando:
As you may remember, I used to have way too many. At one time I had over 80 pieces of classic audio at home until my wife said: "Enough!" My goal was to have all Naks models and I nearly fulfilled that,plus Revox, Tandberg, Technics, ADS, Pioneer, Aiwa, etc. I kept just a few, but its is growing again so I will have to get rid of some. I still have a B 215, Nak ZX-7, ZX-9 and 600. Pioneer 1250, Aiwa AD-F800 and ADS C-4 like new that I'm selling for $275.00.

Well, about two years ago you missed out on two CT-F1000s for sale at Innovative Audio. They both sold immediately after the results were posted of the Cassette Deck Shootout we did there. At $275 each, you couldn't have gone wrong. My CT-F1250 is still chugging away. Hope you get yours back in order.

Tomorrow I should finally have a working Teac 2340 4-channel reel to reel deck at my door!
Since the Roberts 1630 won't go into PLAY but does FF and REW fine the 2340 and 3300 10 will be in the recording center and my Akai GX-636 will go in the bedroom so that at the least all the Barry White will sound excellent, if only to me.
