Beautiful NAKAMICHI 1000 ZXL cassette recorder, an absolute reference. The Best. The machine works properly. Entirely checked and tuned by a professional workshop. The external wooden cabinet should be polished and restored. Instruction manual in 3 languages (English, German and French).

Beyond that, a newly developed micro-processor automatically calibrates the 1000ZXL for any kind of tape with incredible precision, and the test data including information about noise reduction and playback equalisation can be stored in its memory.
