Master of Metal!

Back when paying $25 for a blank cassette tape didn't seem insane. The ultimate in cassette tape technology. The Sony Metal Master with its magnesium and ceramic shell has a heft and solidity that makes an iPod feel like a toy. These held an insane amount of signal, as well. I remember you had to erase them before reusing them because one pass of the erase head wasn't enough to wipe the tape.
