Hi Everyone
Back in the early 70's I had a Yamaha cassete deck with a sloping front panel, in fact the thing was wedge shaped!.
It had slider controls , variable motor speed and was very expensive (around GBP300.0). I cannot remember the model no. and I would like to obtain one again. It had dolby and was very good quality sound wise.If anyone has an idea or knows of this machine let me know please.

You may have already found an answer or totaly forgoten about this, but better late than never. The deck in question is a TC-800. Verry desirable machine in mint condition from a design repect for a colector. I remember seeing it in my parents Hi-Fi shop when I was a kid. The TC-800 was designed by an Italian named Mario Bellini who also designed the super cool looking Olivetti adding machine on my fathers desk in the same shop,I don't know witch I would rather have now, the tape deck or the calculator. If my memory serves me well you can find both at MOMA.
