Description

A quarter-track, low cost
record/play tape transport with a precision balanced flywheel and laminated
record/payback heads.
The unit had two speeds (7½ and 3¾ ips) which were changeable
by a push-button.  Quarter-track stereo and mono recording were possible
and a third head could be added as an optional extra ($16.95).
The KN-4001B stereo tape record/play amplifier pictured below the KN-4200
was the ideal companion for the deck, providing bias oscillator at 70kHz, a response of 20Hz to 20kHz and -45db hum & noise.
Two calibrated VU meters gave record and playback levels and clutch-type
concentric record-level controls for each channel completed the picture.

Additional Info

Bias frequency: 70kHz / Inputs: high impedance microphone input and line input / Dimensions: 9½ x 15½ x5¾” (241.3 x 394 x 146 mm) / Weight: 16 lbs for deck, 15 lbs for preamp unit (7.3 and 6.8 kg) / quarter-track stereo
