Our entire Audio Exchange staff is excited to see this recent trade-in. It's RARE to find one of the most coveted of all Nakamichi Cassette Decks, the CR-7A. We immediately had one of our Audio Repair Technicians put it on the bench and give it a complete checkup.

As you can see our (pic attached) invoice of detailed servicing to bring back this CR-7A to factory specs. The work is done and it's ready for perfect performance in a new home. These do not come along very often. Seize your opportunity to own this piece of audio history. Check our feedback and buy with confidence.

One main reason the Nakamichi Cassette Decks are always in crazy high demand is thanks to the full manual azimuth control. Desirable by savvy pro recording studios and HiFi enthusiasts that demand the best. Many of our customers believe this CR-7A is a more coveted and better-performing deck than it's sister Dragon Model.



Here's your chance to own a fully working CR-7A.



This CR-7A plays and records to spec, and the auto-calibration executes without issues.

See the attached pics for cosmetic condition. The front display is super bright, both meters are responsive, and the drive mechanism engages quietly and quickly.
