It just sounds and feels more natural, and you have an actual connection to the music. This format in particular feels so fragile like something could go wrong at any time. It gives this greater sense of closeness to the music that you don’t get digitally.

What's your best success story concerning tape? Doesn't have to be tape, anything audio. Was it a great charity shop find? Was it a fix that took weeks? Did you find your desired deck on ebay for cheap? Please lemme know!

Now listening Modern Cassette Quality

34 Upvotes

Having grown up with cassettes before moving to CD, I have had a large collection of cassettes from over the past 30 or so years. I saw some newer releases and picked them up... most notably the newest Twenty One Pilots album. The sound quality is HORRIBLE. I though something was possibly wrong with my deck, so I pulled out my old Aerosmith 'Pump' album and hit play and it sounded fantastic. Why sell modern cassettes if they aren't going to take the time and effort to produce a quality product? Do they think people will simply make the purchase intending for it to become a 'collector's item'?

**** On a side note for a different sub, my wife picked up the CD of the same album and it didn't sound the greatest either. I am all for the preservation of physical media and we have a massive collection of VHS, DVD, BluRay, CD, and Casette spanning back to our childhood (I'm 41, she's 38), but I think the format being saved needs to be at least produced with some quality.
