Nakamichi was at the vanguard of high-class cassette decks, providing the highest possible performance quality from every cassette while at the same time simplifying deck operation to make that performance available to everyone. The Nakamichi CR-7 and CR-5 Discrete-Head Cassette Decks embody both the vital aspects of this trend, offering fully discrete three-head designs, direct-drive closed-loop dual-capstan transports, low-distortion/low noise amplifiers and a host of other features. The Nakamichi CR-7 features the unique Nakamichi Auto Calibration System and the Playback-Head Azimuth Fine Tuning Control. While both decks offer superb value and can easily be integrated with the components of even the finest audio system in any home, they have been specifically designed to match the Nakamichi Home Audio Electronics Systems "7" and "5", for outstanding performance with the added convenience of total System Remote Control. Other features included are: real-time tape counter for C-90/60/46 tape - even if the tape is not fully wound to its begining when mounted, Dual-Speed Master Fader Control with Auto Fade function (tape end auto fade out), Wireless Remote Control (CR-7), Output Level Control, Headphone Terminal.
These cassette deck were built between 1986-1993 in three versions CR-70/CR-7A/CR-7E.
