RFT 's first and only HiFi double cassette deck. The design largely corresponds to the single-deck SK3930. The Japanese licensed drives of the type MU300-S DR allow only a slow rewinding of the cassette. In addition to the dubbing option, which was revolutionary for the GDR at the time, the equipment of the device is otherwise quite poor (only one audio output / input via a permanently installed cable, only 2 band types, no headphone output). The deck is considered a rarity today, as it was only sold in very small quantities.
