DescriptionThe JVC KD-85 Stereo Cassette Deck always lets you make a perfect recording. Damage to tapes and mechanism is also avoided.Besides that, the JVC KD-85 is a beautiful machine to behold. Its a visual pleasure. a JVC design coup which, among other extras, includes a Spectro Peak Indicator.Superb specifications include a 30 to 16,000Hz frequency response with chrome tape, a better than 56dB signal to noise ratio with ANRS off and 0.05% wrms wow/flutter. Those figures are roughly comparable to open-reel performance parameters.The KD-85 uses the best mechanism ever conceived for a cassette deck - the two-motor ID mechanism. In this configuration, two motors are employed to insure stable tape transport: a frequency generator servomotor for capstan drive and a DC motor for reel drive.Because each drive mechanism operates independently of the other, and because its operation is thus simplified, the KD-85 achieves a very, very low wow/flutter of less than 0.05% wrms.Full logic control of the KD-85 is the job of three dependable TTL ICs - one custom made MSI type and two TTL ICs. These controls permit direct changing of modes with a light push of buttons which requires only a 6mm stroke. Memory Stop facility is also included.SpecificationsType: 2-head, single compact cassette deckTrack System: 4-track, 2-channel stereoTape Speed: 4.8 cm/sHeads: 1 x record/playback, 1 x eraseMotor: frequency controlled DC servoTape Type: type I, FeCr, CrO2Noise Reduction: ANRSFrequency Response: 30Hz to 16kHz (Cr02 tape)Signal to Noise Ratio: 61dB (ANRS)Wow and Flutter: 0.05%Total Harmonic Distortion: 0.4%Input: 80mV (line), 0.2mV (mic)Output: 0.5V (line)Semiconductors: 18 x IC, 65 x transistors, 94 x diodes, 5 x zener diodesDimensions: 450 x 158 x 327mmWeight: 9.9kgYear: 1978 ALL OF THE ITEMS I SELL ARE TESTED AS THOROUGHLY AS I KNOW HOW TO.
