CASSETTE TAPE
Types
Cassette
tapes
are
in
general classified according
to
the
specified
playing time.
Cassette
construction
is
shown
in
Fig.
1. Specifications
are
universal.
Types
of
tape available
are
as
follows:
1.
Ordinary
tape.
2. Low-noise tape, low-noise high-output
tape
(sometimes coded
LH).
3.
Chrome (i.e.
chromium dioxide)
tape.
Tapes corresponding
to (2)
and
(3)
are
known
as
high-performance
tapes. However, unless
a
tape
deck
designed
for their
use
is
employed,
not
only
will
they
fail to
develop
their
full
inherent perform-
ance,
but
they may
even
give results
inferior
to
ordinary tape. The
CT-4141A is
fitted with
a
tape
selector
switch which
can be set
to
match
each
of
these
kinds
of
tape.
Playing times
The
physical dimensions
of
the different
cassettes
are
identical: the
various
lengths
of
playing
time
depend
upon the
thickness
of
the tape
used.
