Frequently Asked Questions

  • What types of power sources can the WM-D6C use?

In case of battery supply there are four Built Power Sources that the WM-D6C harnesses: Dry Ni –Metal batteries, Mains supply, a Rechargeable battery pack, and an Automobile deployable 12 Volt Battery.

  • How long does the battery last?

Tape used will determine the endurance of the device’s battery. For the TYPE IV (Sony METALLIC) the battery would run for about four hours whereas for TYPE I it would run for approximately five hours but for the combination of TYPE 1/ IV based on Sony Eveready AM3 alkaline batteries will last about six hours.

  • How does the frequency response vary across different cassette tapes?
  • TYPE IV cassette frequency response is 40 — 15,000 Hz +3dB
  • TYPE II cassette frequency response is 40 — 15,000 Hz +3dB
  • TYPE I cassette frequency response is 40 — 15,000 Hz +3dB
  • Do all types of cassettes incorporate the Dolby NR system?

Yes, the WM-D6C has a C-type Dolby NR system which balances the tape noise and fully works with TYPE I, II and IV cassettes.

  • How much is the headphone output power?
