Is the noise reduction that much better that I would notice it if I recorded a CD? In particular I am looking at the Yamaha K-1000 cassette deck. Would I be better off with this deck with dbx or would perhaps something like a Nakamichi in the same price range (~$600) with Dolby be better. Please respond to this account, if there is sufficient interest I will summarize to the net. Thanks! Jeff Lo UUCP: ..!ucbvax!jlo ARPA: jlo@ucbvax.ARPA CSNET: jlo%ucbvax@csnet-relay
