- is Nakamichi my best or only choice if I'm looking for this capability?

We just purchased a Tascam 112 Mk II cassette deck where azimuth is fairly easily adjustable. We haven't started using it yet, though, since I wanted to get hold of an azimuth adjustment tape first (or maybe I'll record one myself, using the factory settings). This deck has a combined record and playback head, so I assume azimuth adjustment on playback also affects recording. It's easily reached on playback after removing the cassette door. Maybe the Nak's have separate heads, I don't know. And the Dragon's apparently have automatic azimuth adjustment.
