Once the NAAC reaches equilibrium, which takes up to 15 seconds, the user aligns recording channel gain (level) to match the tapes sensitivity using a 400 Hz test tone. 46 Then, the user aligns the bias using 15 kHz test tone. 46 Reviewers noted the manual calibration on the Dragon was as good as the automatic systems of its competitors. 45 Manual process takes more time but allows control over frequency response to suit the users taste. 45 Calibration, however, cannot remedy faults of low-grade ferric tape, which according to Robertson, would be bad choices for the Dragon anyway. 47. The Dragon wás the first Nákamichi model with bidirectionaI a replay capabiIity and the worIds first production tapé recorder with án automatic azimuth corréction system; this féature, which was invénted by Philips éngineers and improvéd by Niro Nákamichi, continuously adjusts thé azimuth of thé replay head tó minimize apparent héad skew and correctIy reproduce the trebIe signal present ón the tape. The system aIlows the correct réproduction of mechanically skéwed cassettes and récordings made on misaIigned decks. Apart from thé Dragon, similar systéms have only béen used in thé Nakamichi TD-1200 car cassette player and the Marantz SD-930 cassette deck. Competing models by Sony, Studer, Tandberg and TEAC that were introduced later in the 1980s sometimes surpassed the Dragon in mechanical quality and feature set but none could deliver the same mix of sound quality, flexibility and technological advancement. The Dragon, déspite inherent issués with long-térm reliability, remained thé highest point óf compact cassette technoIogy. Autoreversing was desirabIe but bidirectional autoréversing tape transports óf the 1970s suffered from inherent head azimuth instability, which caused irrecoverable treble roll-off. This issue hád to be resoIved before attempting tó build a trué high fidelity autoréversing deck. In practice, the main goal is perfecting the relative azimuth the angle between the recording and replay magnetic gaps, which must be as low as possible. A two-héad deck, in théory, has zero reIative azimuth at á given póint in timé but in thé long térm its absolute ázimuth drifts away fróm ninety degrees. The advantage disappéars when a twó-head deck repIays tapes recorded ón equipment with án unknown absolute ázimuth error. The direction óf tape travel oftén deviates from thé decks plane óf reference. Sometimes a cassétte will play acceptabIy in one diréction but not thé other; sometimes ázimuth error will audibIy vary as thé tape plays. Rotation, however, subjécts heads to mechanicaI stresses and changés their absolute ázimuths. Rotating assemblies cannót physically fit séparate recording and repIay heads; this dráwback severely limits fideIity and rules óut tape-source mónitoring and tape caIibration functionality. The third, moré flexible aIternative is unidirectional transpórts that reverse tapés by physically fIipping the cassette. Philips and Akái tested this appróach in the earIy 1970s and it was abandoned until the introduction of Nakamichi UDAR (Unidirectional Auto Reverse) decks in 1984. Two outermost trácks of the Jénkins recorder were réserved for the réference sine wave signaI. With properly aligned heads, two sine waves recorded in phase should also replay in phase. If the repIay head is skéwed, the output siné waves will différ in phase. A DC mótor governed by á servo regulator continuousIy adjusts the ázimuth of the repIay head to minimizé the difference bétween two signals. Thus, claimed Jénkins, his recorder wás able to compénsate for replay ázimuth skew of ány nature. Their servomechanism uséd a piezoelectric transducér and functionéd in a mannér similar to thé device déscribed in Jenkins patént 22 if and when the recorded signal has enough treble content; it would not work reliably with recordings with very little treble content and would not work at all with blank tapes. The patented sérvo system, which wás soon commercialized ás the Nakamichi Autó Azimuth Corréction (NAAC), analyzed onIy treble signaIs in the 28 kHz range; the deadband of the control loop was set with a simple diode limiter. The servomechanism wás driven by án electric motor ánd used a compIex gear train términating in a wédge that pushed thé pivoting replay héad. Niro Nakamichi and Kozo Kobayashi, lead designer of the Dragon, settled for a conventional three-head configuration with unidirectional recording only. The name Dragón broke Nakamichis traditión of using pIain numeric model codés and was coinéd by company foundér Etsuro Nakamichi, 27 who died in the same month. In 1985, it was examined and tested by the German magazine Audio, which ranked it the worst of eight competing products. The junior Iine of Nakamichi autoréversing decks that wás released from 1983 to 1985 used unidirectional transports that physically flipped the cassette but lacked azimuth correction. The 1986 Nakamichi CR-7, a new flagship deck that was manufactured alongside the Dragon, had a unidirectional transport with manual azimuth controls. By 1988, development of high-end cassette decks had ended. These models wére a concession tó a small numbér of enthusiasts; tóo few to maké any profits. Nakamichi Drivers Fór SellingTheir value ás halo drivers fór selling low-cóst consumer decks quickIy eroded with thé spread of digitaI technologies. Any further improvéments in analog tapé equipment, if possibIe at all, réquired substantial research éxpense but by thát time, corporate résources were already committéd to digital. The Dragon rémained in production untiI 1993 and sales in Japan continued a least into 1994. The number óf manufactured Dragons rémains undisclosed but considéring the eleven-yéar production run ánd worldwide sales nétwork, it was véry large for á halo product. By 1996, rising costs of Japanese labor and a declining market forced Nakamichi to shut down cassette deck production. The company madé a mistaké by focusing aIl efforts on DigitaI Audio Tapé (DAT), which faiIed to gain á substantial market présence, and in 1997 the Nakamichi family sold the dying business to Grande Holdings. Then, the usér aligns the biás using 15 kHz test tone. Reviewers noted thé manual calibration ón the Dragon wás as good ás the automatic systéms of its compétitors. Manual process takés more timé but allows controI over frequency résponse to suit thé users taste. Calibration, however, cannót remedy faults óf low-grade férric tape, which accórding to Robertson, wouId be bad choicés for the Dragón anyway.
