JVC - CD-1655 / 2-Head Top-Loading Stereo Cassette recorder-player

The JVC CD-1655 (produced between 1973 and 1976) is a classic top-loading stereo cassette deck known for its angled control panel (slant panel) and wooden housing. Below you will find all technical and functional features of this specific model: Visual & Mechanical Features • Design: A top-loading table model with a walnut wood housing. The control panel is slanted for better ergonomics during seated operation. • VU Meters: Equipped with two analog, backlit VU meters (left and right) on the top to visually monitor recording and playback levels. • Tape Counter: A mechanical 3-digit analog counter with a reset button to keep track of the tape position. • Control Keys: Robust mechanical piano keys on the right side (Record, Rewind, Fast Forward, Play/Record, Stop and Eject). • Slider Controls: Two independent vertical sliders on the left to separately set the recording level for the left and right channels (REC/PB LEVEL L-R). Technical Specifications: • Audio System: 2-channel, 4-track stereo recording and playback. • Heads: Equipped with durable ferrite heads (Ferrite record/play heads). • Tape Selection: A manual switch (Bias & Equalizer) to switch between Normal (Type I) and Chrome (CrO2) (Type II) magnetic tapes. • Noise Reduction: Built-in analog Noise-Suppressor circuit (the precursor to later JVC Dolby systems) to reduce tape hiss. • Frequency Range: • 30 Hz – 16,000 Hz when using Chrome tapes. • 40 Hz – 14,000 Hz when using Normal tapes. • Signal-to- Noise Ratio (S/N Ratio): < 50 dB at 1 kHz. • Auto Stop: Features an Auto Stop function that shuts off the mechanism when the cassette reaches the end.
