What cassettes do peaple like these days ....

Always use Metal formulation if possible. It will hold the signal longer than a Chrome or other formulation. Buy the best brand you can, TDK, Maxell, Denon, and Sony were my favorites. I thought the Denons were the best of the bunch...

Minidic, man, minidisc. Cassettes are quite inferior.

I am running TDKs on my Naka and never had any problems with them
Good luck!

I have to agree with UraniumCommittee on this.
You should try to transfer your tapes to minidisc!
I had a Sony JA20ES unit that worked nice for this
purpose.
This way you can listen to the Minidiscs,
anytime you want, WITHOUT the fear
of WEAR AND TEAR! OR EATEN TAPES!
PLUS, you can add TEXT to Minidisc!
I currently have 2 Sony JA3ES units right now,
AS well as a Pioneer DIGITAL 616 cassette
player, to play into Minidisc recorder.
NOW, as far as tapes are concerned,
go with Maxell Metal!

I always liked the best Denon tapes, I just found a box of Nak high bias tapes sealed for surprizingly not too much money.. sometimes these Nak tapes are pretty over priced. Have yet to try them out yet.
