Akai - GX-32 / With Super GX Crystal-Ferrite Heads And...

Akai GX-32 2-head stereo cassette deck in black finish, produced in Japan by Akai Electric Co. (circa 1988–1990). Technically in 100% fully functioning condition (playback, recording, rewinding and tape transport operate correctly); visually in nice vintage condition with light signs of use consistent with age. For analog enthusiasts and collectors of cassette technology, the GX series from Akai is a well-established reference thanks to the Super GX heads (Glass & X’tal Ferrite). This unique ferrite head with a mirror-smooth glass coating is nearly wear-resistant, attracts significantly less tape dust than conventional permalloy heads, and guarantees a constant, loss-free high-fidelity playback over tens of thousands of hours. Sonically, the GX-32 delivers an open, dynamic, and exceptionally low-noise playback. The deck features a 2-motor transport with microprocessor-controlled logic and manual Bias Fine Tuning to precisely align the pre-magnetization with the specific cassette type (Type I Normal, Type II CrO2, or Type IV Metal). Additionally, the unit is equipped with Dolby B and C noise reduction, an optional MPX filter for interference-free FM recordings, and a clear FL display with a digital counter and peak meters.
