    I can't recall if the DR - 10 was the last three head from nakamichi?. Looks like a nice machine, but I'm content with the 482 I own.

      Yes, the last model. They stopped production in 2003. This guy was in the box for 20 years.

      Glad my memory serves me right. 20 years in a box is quite long for a deck of this quality. Thanks for replying and it's nice to see you could put it to use.

    How come you never toe-in your speakers?
    I see you have added sound absorption covers on the walls. How's the sound after the change?
    Also, can you solve what has always been a big mystery to me, that is, which is branded as the better model by Nakamichi, DR1 or DR10?

      Acoustic panels brought better clarity in the mid-range. Technically DR-1/2/10 are the same decks and the schematic IS the same. However when I listen, even with all my modifications they sound different. Maybe parts quality or deterioration. I DNK. Will continue my experiments with DR-2 to see if I can get the same sound, as it sounds the closest to DR-10 from all the decks I have.

    Suonano molto bene,tutti e due,ZX-9 ha un'altro tipo di suono e lo apprezzo di piu',ma va detto che DR-10 ha ottime prestazioni e un suono perfettamente identico all'originale,quindi l'uno compensa l'altro

    The ZX-9 is more reliable and solid like a tank, but DR models use Sanyo mechanism, I prefer the DR-1 instead of DR-10. To compare one to one it's recommended to calibrate the ZX-9 before and use the same tape brand with the same stereo cables in both decks.

    • @hifirulezzz
      @hifirulezzz  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not Sanyo, Sankyo. I repaired 4 DR-1 and 5 DR-2, On my taste DR-10 sounds better.

    I'm sure the champagne colour was an invitation to Accuphase followers by Nakamichi... The real question is: do Accuphase fans really ever listen to cassettes (or have any need to)?

    • @hifirulezzz
      @hifirulezzz  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I am afraid you have missed this video. Accuphase and few dozens of decks :) th-cam.com/video/Zv8Io4U0g9I/w-d-xo.html

      @@hifirulezzz for a moment I thought you were pointing me to a video about an Accuphase cassette deck - I really got a shock there!
      Great collection of decks. But was anyone of those champagne ones better than a champagne Nakamichi DR-10, to be worthy of being placed in an Accuphase system?
      The Pioneer Reference line is simply gorgeous: it really defines how a reference line ought to look like. Shame about the logo and brand name: it's always unfortunate when a brand name is too meaningful. Of course I was satisfied to see your friend placed the AKAI Reference GX-95 mkII on top of the CT-93 although, admittedly, the latter looks a smidge better/more luscious.

    Nine is a thing. Ten sounds simpler.

    We don't want a cassette deck when we look for quality sound lmao

      It is your own opinion, do not say it for everyone. Listening to a black box with IC is boring. We need trouble with tuning the tape path and making recordings. You are not a part of the club, we are sorry for you. There are so many entertainment moments when you watch rotating reels.

      Wrong. I have vinyl, tape, cd, and digital. Tape is really amazing.

    Накамичи dr10 это уже не накамичи, а так, ерунда. Zx-9 - это другой уровень, это пик совершенства.

    • @hifirulezzz
      @hifirulezzz  ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Не согласен. Конкретно этот DR-10 просто бесподобен. У меня нет ни одного дека который бы звучал так же. Я бы даже сказал что мои бобинники тоже отдохнут в сторонке.
