Don't know about all high-bias, but I swore by TDK SA-C90 blanks twenty
years ago to the extent I bought them by the case. It may be my imagination,
but when they went from the paper labels (that inevitably peeled off) to the
stamped plastic, the consistent quality I loved went away.

I have program matter on twenty year-old TDK SA-C90s that sound as good
today as they did back then.

Well, let's see... In my book, comparing TDK SA-90s to Maxell's XL-II
90s is a lot like horse**** vs. dog****!

Just kiddin' ya there, John. Couldn't resist.

Actually, I too bought crateloads of SA-90s and XL-IIs all throughout
the 80s as well - basically because that's all there was to be had by a
guy my age at the time. I heard rumours that Radio Shack was soon to
release a CD-recorder named "Thor" back in 1986 but it never materialized.
