A cassette deck is a type of tape recorder for playing or recording audio compact cassettes. A deck was formerly distinguished from a recorder as being part of a stereo component system, while a recorder had a self-contained power amplifier (and often speakers).

The cassette recorder was introduced by the Philips Corporation in 1963 and marketed in 1965 as a device for vocal dictation designed for portable use. It was not intended to be a replacement for reel-to-reel recorders. It enclosed both reels of the recording tape in a small case which eliminated the need to thread the tape through individual reels.

When was the cassette player invented?

1973! That the cassette by itself but the cassette player came out in 1980 Nope. This cannot be correct, because I owned a cassette player and plenty of cassettes for it too, at least 3 years before that (when I was in Vietnam). And they were not a new technology when I bought mine. I also owned an 8-track tape player with tapes. I always wanted a reel-to-rell because they were supposed t be the best of all. But I never got around to getting one.
