It does roll off, but it's much more subtle than anything like lossy formats and their cliff at progressively low frequencies. I don't think tape acts as a low pass filter, which could make things sound warmer. It's more of just a gradual roll off, not extreme, more like a wide high shelf. I suppose lower quality tapes have more roll off.
My results may have also been offset by incorrect bias, despite using "auto-tune". This deck doesn't have 3 heads, so I don't have the luxury of fiddling with bias and seeing instant results.
I'll have to try different things, and post results.
This is strange though, as the typical associated sound of cassettes is that woolly and muffled P.O.S. sound in your car stereo or on the school system.
