Return of an Old Friend, the TEAC Z6000 Mastering Cassette Deck.

Sadly, I sold it in the late 80s because I wanted a deck with Dolby C. So, I picked up a lower/ mid end AIWA which honestly didn't sound as good as the TEAC with Dolby B.

You would have loved an AIWA from the early 80s. Those were definitely better. They were more solidly built, contained calibration controls and tended to come with more impressive performance specifications.

Don't get me wrong my AIWA was decent and it lasted a long time. Finally gave it away around 2010 or so when I decided to get out of cassettes as I only had a few left from the glory days.
