Had a Teac E-3, always mada a satisfying buzz when it was on, but in fact hadn't been doing anything, for how long not sure,
Hadn't used my Tascam 4 track in a while, and while dubbing some cassette tracks to computer through outboard, (rewinding repeatedly til I got it right) there was definitely some high end being lost on subsequent playbacks.
Tried the Teac on a old cassette, bulk erase style, and sure enough, no effect whatsoever.
Just received a Han-D-Mag (ordered from US Recording) today. Man, this thing feels like it would erase your memory if you stood too close for too long. Oh, and great playback restored. Yahoo!
Maybe this will prove to a friend across town, a Tascam 388 owner of several years, that one of these things is really necessary!! Going for about $60.
