Cassette Deck Azimuth Adjustment
In the absence of voltmeters and removing the grounds of headphones to
get a positive L-R, are there certain pre-recorded cassette labels that are better than others for obtaining a *reasonably* well aligned tape head that will play at least 90% of my tapes properly? Of course I know NEVER to use a blank cassette recorded on at HOME to align a deck. Better to use a barely or never played recently purchased album on cassette. Which labels tend to produce the most consistently accurate cassettes - A&M records, Sony, BMI, Capital, Geffen, Rhino, or others? -CC |

Which labels tend to produce the most consistently accurate cassettes - A&M records, Sony, BMI, Capital, Geffen, Rhino, or others? My question would be "are any of those any good at all?" (for your stated purpose), considering that the copies are made on high-speed duplicating equipment. Shouldn't you be looking for some kind of standard alignment cassette (assuming availability and budget)? -- The fashion in killing has an insouciant, flirty style this spring, with the flaunting of well-defined muscle, wrapped in flags. - Comment from an article on Antiwar.com (http://antiwar.com) |
