Description
This is a rare opportunity to get a very rare and amazing performing tape deck
Just been fully serviced with new belts and cleaning. Everything works as a charm
The top cover would benefit from respraying, and there is some wear around, but it's only cosmetic
The CD491 is Harman Kardon's most sophisticated design
Its frequency response is a remarkable 20Hz to 24kHz (±3dB) with any tape formulation.
With Dolby HX Professional, and its closed-loop, dual-capstan transport, the CD491 sets new reference standards for high-fidelity cassette decks
It has three heads for improved performance and the convenience of monitoring while recording. There is a Sendust record head to withstand high record levels without overload, and a ferrite playback head for extended high-frequency response.
In addition, the CD491 has dual Dolby B and C noise reduction. And its tone generators for bias trim and record calibration allow for alignment of the bias and Dolby level to virtually any tape.
To keep recording pure, the CD491 has a unique meter weighting feature which measures the frequency content of the music. It references the overload level of the tape to a + 3dB meter reading. This allows the user to easily set the recording level as high as possible, without tape saturation. It is backed by a 16-segment peak level meter ranging from -30dB to + 10dB.
The CD491 also features: bi-directional auto search, which locates the next selection automatically. Auto repeat, and auto space for cueing. And for convenience, the digital display functions as a time counter as well as a conventional tape counter.
Don't compare it to any other cassette deck, compare it to the source you are recording.
