Hell no ! Cassettes never put phasers onto cymbal decays and light
acoustic guitars. Just hiss.

You have a cassette with NO wow and flutter or scrape noise, and with
perfect phase alignment? Better than a Nakamichi Dragon then. (but
better R2R machines were available for that kind of money). And what
about the problems caused by Dolby NR on any cassette machine. Even
Nakamichi couldn't change the laws of physics when it came to high
frequencies at higher levels on cassette tape.

But somebody, apparently, can change t5he laws of physics wrt lossy
encoding at low bitrates.
