I also am looking for a medium ($350-550) priced cassette deck. I've
heard the HARMON KARDON units (CD391 in particular) will give better
price/performance plus USEFUL features like bias adjust compared to a
NAK BX150. The dealers (two of them - so few carry HK and NAK both) seem
to be biased toward NAK (as if the company that makes the DRAGON would
never cut corners even on a "budget" deck). I seem to like the capability
of the bias adjust on the HK CD391 plus the HX PRO for more high frequency
headroom (even thought I couldn't really tell)compared to the NAK's no
bias adjust. Anyone out there who's had HK and/or NAK tape decks care to
give a "unbiased (???)" view of the two ?
