Default Re: Philips N1700. Exchange of cassette tape.

I have done this successfully in the past, using "high grade" tape, though I am sure ordinary grade (probably the only sort now available) will do. To fill a N1500/1700 cassette I used nearly two VHS tapes. The splices must be good, and "straight" not diagonal.

in use the "modern" tape glides through the N1700 mechanism and FF/Rewind are virtually silent...
