Description from the seller
BASF Chrome Super II 90 – original 10-pack – Type II Chrome – 1989
Original 10-pack BASF Chrome Super II 90 audio cassettes from 1989, coming from the heyday of the analog cassette.
The Chrome Super II was a high-quality IEC Type II / High Position cassette from BASF, featuring a double-layer genuine chromium dioxide formulation. This generation also received a reinforced precision housing, by BASF labeled as “Transversally Reinforced Cassette,” designed for a stable tape transport and accurate recording and playback.
The cassettes have a runtime of 90 minutes, 2 × 45 minutes, with 135 meters of tape.
The tapes have been tested and function excellently. I have made recordings with them and the recording quality is still superb: clear, detailed and with very little noise. This is therefore not only an interesting collectible, but also a lot of cassettes that are still perfectly usable for high-quality analog recordings.
The original BASF 10-pack is present. The packaging and cassettes are in beautiful vintage condition, with normal light signs of storage and aging. See the photos for an accurate impression of the condition.
Specifications
Brand: BASF
Model: Chrome Super II 90
Introduction year of this version: 1989
Type: IEC Type II / High Position
Tape formulation: double-layer chromium dioxide
Playback time: 90 minutes per cassette, 2 × 45 min.
Tape length: 135 m

Original 10-pack packaging
Tested and in good working order
Made in Germany / European version
A lovely and increasingly hard-to-find lot for collectors of vintage audio, cassette deck enthusiasts—and for those who actually want to use these classic BASF tapes.
Small nuance: I would not label them on Catawiki as “NOS” or “new old stock,” because you have tested them. That could lead to future disputes. You can strongly emphasize that it is the original 10-pack and that the recording quality has indeed been tested.
