ONE-MICRON GAP HEAD
AKAI’s one-micron gap head is responsible for an amazingly
important difference in tape recording. It’s the difference
between ordinary performance and the highest possible quality
perfection.
Just what is a one-micron gap head? It’s a head with a width of
only one astounding micron. Until now two or four micron gap
heads have been the standards for comparing tape recorders.
However, AKAI has pushed ahead and narrowed the head gap;
thus narrowing the difference between tape recording results
and actual sound.
The AKAI perfected one-micron gap head has these distinctive
advantages over heads with wider gaps:
(A) Excellent frequency response even at low tape speed.
(B) Clear, high pitched sound can be regenerated as a
frequency tone and recorded smoothly with a minimum
of distortion.
