About This Model

The Technics RS-BX501 is a full-size auto-reverse stereo cassette deck built for serious home listening and recording. It supports Type I, Chrome, and Metal tape formulations, with Auto Tape Calibration (ATC) automatically selecting the correct bias and equalisation for whichever tape is loaded. Dolby B and C noise reduction are both on board, alongside Dolby HX Pro for improved high-frequency linearity during recording — a feature more commonly found on higher-end decks. The transport uses full logic control, responding to light finger contact for smooth, fast operation, and a 4-digit digital linear counter with memory stop makes cueing straightforward. Additional touches include an MPX filter for cleaner recording off FM broadcasts, a dedicated headphone output, and wireless remote control support for the main transport functions. Wow and flutter is rated at 0.07%, and signal-to-noise ratio reaches 74dB with Dolby C engaged.

A great opportunity to own a Technics RS-BX501 at this price point.
