The legendary Tandberg 3014 A. Some say digital media buried Nakamichi, some say it was the Tandberg. Regardless, the 3014 is often called the best cassette deck, period. Introduced in 1985, with an msrp of nearly 5k, few were sold, and even fewer remain. This original-owner deck, complete with original manuals, may be the finest 3014 you will find.

- The History of Tandberg

- Liner Notes
The Tandberg TCD 3014 cassette deck is one of a small group of "no compromise" home recorders that can seriously be considered the best that money can buy. In addition to its three heads, dual-capstan transport, and both Dolby-B and Dolby-C noise reduction, the TCD 3014 provides facilities for fine tuning bias, sensitivity, and azimuth that tape aficionados will appreciate. At the same time, however, the deck is designed for ease of operation by those who simply want top-quality sound without fuss.
- Packing
- Prepare to be impressed. We have arguably the best packing process around. This piece will ship double-boxed, and fully insulated, taking extra care to ensure there's no pressure against the face. First, the component is first wrapped in 8mil plastic. Then, the unit is strapped to a plate inside an inner box to prevent shifting, and padded on all sides. We then suspend the inner box inside a double-walled outer box using shock-resistant foam corners.
- Shipping
- This piece ships to the contiguous United States for a flat rate of $100, which includes our packaging and our insurance. Of course, we'll ship anywhere in the world, just drop us a line and we'll give you an estimate – even if you're just curious.
