Default transferring cassettes to CD - Plusdeck 2C or other options

Just go the Nak Dragon route.

Might be a bit extreme.
Just going to a 3-head deck makes
an immense improvement...


There are two excellent reasons for using a Dragon. First, Nakamichi
playback heads tend to have more HF output than other manufacturers' heads.
This introduces its own set of problems, but it means you might get a better
transfer of a worn or dull-sounding tape. Second, the asymmetrical
diffused-resonance transport produces significantly lower audible modulation
noise.
