Kenwood Dual Cassette Deck (CT-401)

Kenwood Dual Cassette Deck (CT-401) Review

Kenwood Dual Cassette Deck (CT-401) Feature

• Home audio dual-cassette tape deck
• Noise reduction, dubbing
• Song search
• Records from tape, or from same brand CD player

Tape-to-tape dubbing is a snap with Kenwood's affordable CT-401 cassette deck. Both wells offer auto-reverse playback. One deck records and plays, while the other only plays. The component offers full-logic electronic controls, industry-standard Dolby B noise reduction, one-touch tape copying, and Kenwood's Direct Program Search System (DPSS), which lets you search, play, and repeat up to 16 different songs. Connections include one each stereo analog (left/right) RCA input and output.

The deck comes with system-control in and out ports. By using the CT-401 in concert with a Kenwood amplifier or receiver with a system-control jack and a Kenwood CD player with a system-control jack using system control cords, you can enjoy synchronized, one-touch CD-to-cassette recording.

DPSS programming requires spaces (stretches of tape with no recorded signal) of 4 seconds or more between the segments you wish to program.

What's in the Box
Tape deck, a stereo analog audio (left/right) RCA interconnect, a system control cord, and a user's manual with warranty information. Kenwood's dual-well cassette deck offers full-logic controls, Dolby« B noise reduction, and tape-to-tape dubbing--all at a very reasonable price. And if you've already got a remote-controlled Kenwood receiver (with SL16 control), you can use the receiver's remote to control this tape deck!
