Pioneer CT-F1000

Big piece - specs-wise well behind the later CT-F1250 or CT-A9 but the 1000 looked straightforwardly good. And for the times it was up to what was possible with the Compact Cassette format.

Three Ferrite heads, one motor for fast FW/RW and another for the main REC/Play function, relay-activated tape movements, automatic Chrome tape detection, built-in 400Hz oscillator, MPX filter, Dolby calibration, ±6% pitch control etc. The motor is common to the CT-F1000, CT-F9090 and CT-F8080 models.
