Nakamichi
RX-505 Later, less-remembered model than the ubiquitous Dragon or, mostly, the 1000-ZXL. The RX-505 was nevertheless, and despite its gimmicky appearance and operation, an updated Nakamichi masterpiece : updated drive, updated electronics, updated... auto-reverse ! Like on the contemporary Dragon CT and TX-1000, instead of devising complex mechanical arrangements to perfect auto-reverse, Nakamichi found a way to do away with the inherent problems of the concept and had either the tape itself turn around the heads (RX series) or the platter be nudged to avoid off-center induced distortions and wow from LPs ! The simpler, more direct loading and revised capstan is a preview of that used for tha 1988 Nakamichi 1000 DAT recorder. All about Nakamichi and more Nakamichi right here - you'll find the brochure, service manual and more which I thus need no post here. |
