I just disconnected my casette deck

[Jack O. Hartz]

I pitched all my casettes a couple years back. My stereo cabinet is actually an antique armoire that my wife also uses for storing some of her stuff. So she was like, if you don't really use that casette player anymore, I could use the space for something else. Still works fine, guess I'll give it to Goodwill.

Goodwill may be able to get some decent coin for it since cassettes are making a comeback.

I have a Nakamichi Deck #1 which I still use quite a bit and works great. I recorded shows from '81 to '92 and still play my masters on it. I donated other crappy sounding tapes trying to make space.

What to do with a horribly sounding 8th gen audience tape of a mediocre Grateful Dead show from Giants Stadium from 1994? But it has ok artwork from a female friend from that era?

I don't even know you any more.

I broke out my old nak, but I don’t have any tapes left unfortunately

If you don't use it and it's where the space could be used for anything else, why not move it?

If that tape artwork means anything to you keep the tape. You don't need to play the tape everyday, find another recording on archive to listen to and just hold on to the tape.

My D5 has been in my closet for almost 26 years

I take it out about every 6 months throw a master on

Glad to see another Cassette Deck 1 user. I've had mine for about 2 years now and it's fantastic. I love the manual azimuth control. Only a handful of Naks have the manual adjust which is one of the reasons I grabbed the CD1. Other reason is it's one of the last good Naks made. I get a kick out of tapers who insist on having a Dragon or CR7. Why? They're not recording on them. The Dragon does have auto azimuth which is cool, but for $4000 for a good one.

My D5 is also in my closet. All my cassettes are boxed up in the basement. Both have not seen the light of day for years. Not sure what I am going to do with them. My Nak also sits with my stereo system unused.

It broke my heart to do but now time has healed that break. Same with my cd deck. I've gone digital. I'm ashamed of myself, and I lament it, but this is the way of the world.

My wife wants our next car to be electric - for the same reason.

And the funny thing is I can't part with it
I have seen them for sale on ebay and for quite a few bucks.

I put my non working D5 on eBay a few years ago with a staring bid of 9.99. It sold for $400.

I’ve got a cassette player in my truck and actually still have about 15 tapes.

I actually have 3 cassettes left. Two Adrian Belew studio albums and a Stiff Records compilation that I played the shit out of when it was new.

That’s awesome- I have a non-working D6 - wonder what I can get for that. I’ve never sold through EBay, but now that I’m retired I should learn how to do it.

i still listen to cassettes every now and then. bought a fully restored Nak Dragon a few years ago and use it to make sure it works. i have about 1200 or so tapes still and bought some off of ebay. i check from time to time and found a few old tapers that were selling their collections so got some nice masters.
