Nakamichi 1000ZXL

Computing Cassette Deck

Perhaps once a decade, a unique recorder is created - an instrument of the future - designed without compromise to defy obsolescence and redefine the state of the art.

The Nakamichi 1000 was such a machine. Introduced in 1973, it was the world's first three head cassette recorder - the first to achieve 20 kHz response - the first to afford off- tape monitoring. Truly, it established the state of the art in the 1970s. What the Nakamichi 1000 was to the 1970s, the 1000ZXL is to the 1980s  - a radical departure from conventional technology - a creative leap into another dimension - into the future. A recorder that establishes a new frontier in bandwidth - response to an incredible 25 kHz! A recorder that adapts itself not only to today's premium tapes but to those of tomorrow as well! A recorder that secretly encodes 15 separate programs so that each can be located reliably at your command! A recorder that senses how a tape is recorded and establishes ideal playback conditions automatically! A recorder that is as simple to operate as it is sophisticated in operation A recorder that harnesses the power of two microprocessors - A.B.L.E. and RAMM - to redefine the state of the art! The Nakamichi 1000ZXL - a recorder of the future, created today!
