The Akai GX-32 is a solid, two-head hi-fi cassette deck produced by the Japanese brand Akai between 1988 and 1990. The model is primarily known for its legendary, virtually wear-free Super GX (Glass & Crystal Ferrite) audio head, which ensures a long service life and excellent high-frequency response.
Although it was positioned as the entry-level model within Akai’s renowned GX line at the time, the deck offers highly reliable performance for both recording and playback.
Key Specifications
• Head System: Two-head design (1x Super GX record/playback head, 1x erase head).
• Motors: 2 motors (1x DC servo motor for the capstan, 1x DC motor for reel drive).
• Noise Reduction: Dolby B and C, equipped with a switchable MPX filter for interference-free FM radio recordings.
• Tape Support: Compatible with Type I (Normal), Type II (CrO₂/Chrome), and Type IV (Metal) tapes.
• Frequency Response: Ranges from approximately 25 Hz to 20,000 Hz when using Metal tapes.
• Bias Control: Manual Bias Fine Tuning to precisely adjust the bias current for the specific type of cassette tape being used.
Features & Display
The unit features a sleek, functional front panel (available in black or silver). It is equipped with a clear FL (fluorescent) display with digital peak-level meters and a mechanical 3-digit counter. In addition, the deck features convenient functions such as IPLS (Instant Program Locating System) for automatically locating the beginning of the next track.
