    It could well be that with the advent of CD in the 80's , and later the ability to copy them in your PC , would have rendered many cassette decks redundant , consigned to the attic etc.
    The same rules apply though Nak , Teac , Sony generally lasted well.
    I'm sure that was the case but i was hoping someone made a decent deck after the turn of the century...

    I haven’t seen one and would assume if anyone in the world was still producing compact cassette recorder/players they would be very low end units similar to the last VHS decks that were produced before they became globally out of production.

    I agree with the others... find another Nak.

    There's nothing new here, but if you haven't read it you might find it useful. The article is from 2017.

    Thanks, I did a quick search on ebay for every deck listed and only got about 3 decks available and didn't get any hits for a price lower than a lower end nak of the same age. I'm really concentrating on low end Naks that have had some sort of service in the recent past...
