I'm interested in buying an Auto Reverse Cassette Deck.  Specifically,
an Akai GXR-66 for $200 at J&R.  It has b&C dbx gx heads and a couple other nice
features and originally retailed for about 420.

The question I had is that I had heard that auto reverse decks don't track
as well.  Is this only true on the B side? IS this only true with tapes
not recorded on the deck?  Does not using this feature i.e actually taking
the tape out during recording and/or playback stop this problem or is it
still present?

If anyone has any other comments on this deck (or others) they would be 
appreciated.
