BTO PlusDeck 2c PC cassette deck

Date Published: 5/16/08

The BTO PlusDeck 2c cassette deck is a unique product. Of course, you've seen cassette decks in automobiles, boom boxes and minisystems, but the PlusDeck cassette deck might be the very first to go into a desktop Windows PC.

The PlusDeck is designed to work with your computer, in a variety of ways. As a standard audio cassette deck, it can play taped audio through the computer's speakers or the front-panel headphone jack. You can send audio from the PlusDeck into your computer and convert it to MP3 files, or transfer content to CD or DVD for archiving. The player is also equipped for recording, allowing you to tape any computer audio, including streaming internet audio.

The PlusDeck isn't a stand-alone unit, as it fits into a standard drive bay like those that accommodate the usual 5-1/4-inch CD drives. The frequency response is 20Hz to 18,000Hz, with 40dB of separation and a signal-to-noise ratio of 55dB. The BTO PlusDeck 2c cassette deck brings new life to an aging technology.
