{"product_id":"nakamischi-dragon","title":"Nakamischi DRAGON","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Nakamichi Dragon is one of the most iconic cassette decks ever built and is considered by many enthusiasts to be the absolute pinnacle of analog cassette playback. Developed by Nakamichi in Japan in the 1980s, the Dragon represents an uncompromising pursuit of maximum sound quality from the Compact Cassette format.  The Dragon's unique character lies primarily in the revolutionary Nakamichi Automatic Azimuth Correction (NAAC) system. This system continuously corrects the position of the playback head, allowing even older cassettes or those recorded on other decks to be played back with exceptional accuracy. This enabled Nakamichi to solve a problem that plagued virtually all other cassette decks: deviations in tape alignment.  The Dragon features a sophisticated 3-head design with separate record, playback, and erase heads, a direct-drive transport mechanism, and a dual capstan drive for optimal tape speed stability. Thanks to support for Normal, Chrome, and Metal tapes, manual calibration, and Dolby B\/C noise reduction, the deck extracts the maximum performance from every cassette.  With a frequency response up to approximately 22 kHz, very low wow \u0026amp; flutter, and an exceptionally refined transport, the Dragon is technically one of the most advanced cassette decks ever produced.  The Nakamichi Dragon is more than a cassette deck; it is a technical masterpiece from the golden age of analog audio. A highly sought-after collector's item for enthusiasts who value mechanical perfection, nostalgia, and the unique sound of high-quality cassette playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eType: auto reverse, 3-head, single compact cassette deck Track System: 4-track, 2-channel stereo Tape Speed: 4.8 cm\/s Heads: 1 x record, 1 x playback, 1 x erase Motor: 2 x capstan, 1 x reel, 1 x auto azimuth, 1 x mechanism Tape Type: type I, CrO2, Metal Noise Reduction: B, C Frequency Response: 20Hz to 22kHz (Metal tape) Signal to Noise Ratio: 72dB (dolby C) Wow and Flutter: 0.04% Total Harmonic Distortion: 0.8% Input: 50mV (line) Output: 1V (line) Dimensions: 450 x 135 x 300mm Weight: 9.5kg\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nakamischi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59370733011289,"sku":"2438","price":3490.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1066\/5721\/8905\/files\/nakamischi-dragon-1.jpg?v=1789119129","url":"https:\/\/wenwaudio.com\/en-eu\/products\/nakamischi-dragon","provider":"W\u0026WAudio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
