Somewhat overpriced, I'll agree, but they do look gorgeous though! Sony were onto something in the late 70's. That TC229 would go nicely next to my EL7 :lol:

Did you read the description? The seller thinks that this deck used to sell for a price of a flat in Chelsea in 1978 - £27500. Now, that surely would make it the most expensive cassette deck ever!Quote:

That would be £110,307 today.
Hehehe!
He's changed the listing :) . And the BIN price is much more realistic now. However I kept the screen shot ;) .Quote:

That guy must have thought he'd hit the motherlode with that deck! Shame it's not in better shape. Cosmetically it looks in good condition.
From The Grave
I think this corpse should have been left buried. There were very few decks that could be classed as the best, and all of them have been discussed in the thread ;).
We've a lot of new members now, with different experiences and opinions . Others may be grateful for having it brought to their attention. As I point out every week San, if you've any suggestions I'd like to hear them. I don't exactly get deluged with pm's on this subject though, sadly so you're left with my choice!
I've had a Nak Cr7 and I much prefer, and still have, a TEAC 8030S.
