Nakamichi OMS-5 (5)

Brand: Nakamichi

The Nakamichi OMS-5 is a high-end cassette tape player and recorder released by the Japanese audio equipment manufacturer Nakamichi in the mid-1980s. The "OMS" in the name stands for "ockine matched system," which refers to its use of a low-distortion head design that minimizes wow and flutter, producing a clear, high-fidelity sound. The OMS-5 specifically has five heads for its tape transport mechanism, making it capable of playback at double speed without pitch changes and provides superior noise reduction and winding accuracy. It also has features such as dolby B/C noise reduction, bass management for better bass response, and gold-plated RCA inputs and outputs. The Nakamichi OMS-5 is highly regarded among audiophiles and is still sought after by collectors and vintage audio enthusiasts today.
