    Unless they clearly say so, assume the same crappy Chinese magnetic head/motor combo single integrated module as in every other cassette player these days. I wouldn’t buy it.

      They do indeed specify some sort of high voltage precision motor and a copper flywheel. And they claim a custom movement design.

      And since it is an enthusiast device from a company with a good reputation, you can easily find teardowns online.

      Anyway, you can read reviews online, there are plenty of them, and make your own mind.

        Yup, the information out there seems to explain it’s another Tanashin mechanism clone. In my opinion you can change the tires of your Opel Corsa, but it’s still an Opel Corsa.
