chosing a cassette deck


Anyone still using casstte decks? I'm looking for one with " auto reverse " but I am noticing a bit of a difference. I had a nice Pioneer dual deck that finally burnt up on me. The nice thing about this deck is that it would play both sides of the tape when in auto reverse and then stop.

I have tried a Denon and a Sony but both play the tape contiuosly for hours when on auto reverse. Any one have another brand that only plays once around when in auto reverse? I require a dual deck as I still burn tapes.

Only one choice really, NAK... they will break down after 10-15 years, stay away from the CR-3A, the CR-7A is great but expensive to fix, of course there's the Dragon, very pricey also expensive to fix. BX-300 is a great deck and not hard to find or expensive.. all units should have the "gear-drive upgrade" performed or buy the "Cassette Deck 1" from the early 90's with gear drive built-in.
