TDK MA-XG90

[Old skewl]

My tape of choice through out the late 80's and early 90's was the TDK MA-XG90. I'll try to post some pics later. Clear case with a metal frame. Every CD I owned was recorded onto one of these. Still have them all. Don't have a cassette player to play them on. My Cassette Player got nailed by a power surge a few years ago. I never bothered to replace it.

Had me drooling at the thought of a large collection of these gems.
Do you have any unopened blanks? These things sell in the range of little gold nuggets on eBay.

too easy to "overcook" these I found out to my dismay

You were encouraged to record deep into the red - and alas once done the tape never recovered

I'd like to hear a well recorded one

I'll have to look. I always bought these by the case. Pretty sure I used them all. No sealed or unopened cases. The did record nice though. Makes me want break one out to listen to. But I can't. No deck!

The MA-XG's are beautiful tapes back in the 80's those were my favorites and still to this day.

Holy Crap!! I just got on ebay and looked at what these tapes are selling for. $20-25 for a used tape without a case or recording tab. WOW!

I was bidding on a CA-70 on ebay that needed some repairs. No luck!
