Cassette deck Pioneer CT-W505R
On the whole, beautiful and quite commensurate unit. The middle part of the front panel full of controls, but the feeling of tightness does not arise, since ergonomics of the device is well established, convenient control buttons control each broach conveniently grouped. The windows in the cassette compartment door almost the size of the display, as if that emphasizes the stylistic unity of the whole space the front panel, which is broken only by the gold sticker on the lid of the left cassette. If later in life you can gently remove the sticker, I personally have no claims to the design.
The case is reduced in depth, which prevents it from being half empty. Inside we find two rather simple single-engine reversing broach Turned aluminum handwheels. Measurements have shown that this circumstance undoubtedly had a positive impact on the level of the coefficient of detonation - the 505 th he's one of the best in the test company. All electronics, except for one pushbutton station, located on a large spacious monoplate occupying the entire bottom of the housing. But tear off from external and internal experiences and deal with functions. Besides the already traditional full Dolby-set (B, C and HX Pro), we find the search pauses to 15 fragments sinhrostart when dubbing from CD-ROM (CD SYNCHRO) and wired remote control bus (but only in the company of his company vehicles). Of consumer pleasures present headphone amplifier and a counter with two modes - the length of the tape and real time; however, this is no time for the tape and clean playback mode.
But the individual, in our opinion, deserves a conversation circumstance among the devices in our test at the 505 th one of the richest collections of automatic and semi-automatic optimization of the recording/playback. In this case nothing is imposed by force, everything can be turned on or off and use according to their understanding. So, analyze it more wealth. System BLE - automatically detects and optimizes parameters tape recording mode under them. System ALCA - automatically maintains optimum recording level , analyzing the input signal level and taking into account the tape options . System FLEX - when playing compensates treble (above 1 kHz), improves the sound on tape with a low -impact high-frequency range of 10 kHz provides lifting up to 12 dB. Finally system TDNS - reduces noise in the pauses when dubbing tracks on their own broach at normal speed.
The results of the measurements we want to further noted at the 505 th good results at a rate of detonation and frequency response, especially at high speed. It is on a very good frequency response significantly influence the above optimizers: chastotka smooth guaranteed until 16 kHz, and at both speeds.
