A saddle-stitched A4 booklet, 8 pages - the complete Lo-D deck lineup from late 1980 under the “Yes! Decking” slogan. Three series: EXCITE OVER! (E-series, four models from the entry-level D-E20 to the three-head D-E90), METAL BLACK (MB/M series with ATRS and direct drive, flagship D-5500MB at 220,000 with wireless remote) and SENSITIVE S (budget models). Separately the D-100C - a hybrid deck with AM/FM receiver and digital timer, and the D-8000MKII reel-to-reel at 199,000. The first spread is entirely dedicated to Lo-D’s three-head deck history from the 70s.
