Description from the seller

12x Sony Metal-XR Cassette Tapes - NOS / Sealed - Type IV - Made in Japan (1989)

### Product Details
An exceptional lot of 12 vintage Sony Metal-XR (Type IV / Metal Position) audio cassette tapes. Released in 1989 during the golden era of Japanese audio technology, the Metal-XR series is highly regarded for its superb magnetic formulation, specifically engineered to capture high-fidelity digital sources like CDs with outstanding dynamic range and low noise.

All tapes are New Old Stock (NOS) and remains completely factory sealed (Mint condition).

### Lot Composition (Total: 12 Tapes)
This high-value lot consists of a versatile mix of lengths, including the highly sought-after 100-minute versions:
* 2x Sony Metal-XR 46 (46 Minutes)
* 8x Sony Metal-XR 50 (50 Minutes)
* 2x Sony Metal-XR 100 (100 Minutes) - *Very Rare*

### Collector's Value & Condition
* Country of Manufacture: Japan (Made in Japan)
* Production Era: Circa 1989 - 1992
* Condition: Factory Sealed / Unopened (New Old Stock)
* Notable Feature: The 100-minute Type IV (Metal) tapes are notoriously difficult to find in pristine, sealed condition today due to their limited production run and historical demand.

A perfect opportunity for vintage audio enthusiasts and cassette collectors to acquire a substantial set of premium Japanese metal tapes.

Please review the photos carefully to confirm the excellent condition of the outer wrapping before bidding. Will be packed with utmost care and shipped securely with tracking.
