Honestly, the DA-302 was one of the biggest POS DAT decks made. I've sent mine for repairs twice, and it's now sitting in my closet screwed up again. I just don't have the desire to keep throwing money at it. Check out the DAT Heads archives, I've not heard of anyone who didn't have multiple problems with theirs.
The idea of a dual well DAT deck was great in theory, but it just didn't work - hence why no other models were ever made.
