I'd like to hear your comparison. One likely source of a difference
is the huge treble pre-equalization that is applied to a cassette
recording, causing serious saturation limiting of high frequencies
when levels are high. I expect you'd want a cassette's meter to be
barely moving when recording a cricket.
