HELP...

I have just purchased an Alpine set up for my car. With the
modular system the sound is awesome. My friend showed me several
different tapes in the system. All except one sounded ok. The odd
one out was unreal. The bass and highs were much more vivid than
the rest. As it turns out, the good tape was maxell udxls-2 taped
with high bias. The question I have is...

What type of home tape deck do I now have to buy to reproduce
that clean sound onto the xls-2 tape? There are soooo many
and the prices vary greatly. Also the Alpine is set up for
metal tapes. Are these any better or just more expensive?
Please help me before I throw away several hundred dollars
on something I may not need. Thanks in advance.
