The JBR DCC Deck was used to make previously erased analog tape audible again. A unique way of playing back erased tapes, with the Magneto Resistive head from a Philips DCC900 Digital Compact Cassette.
It was featured in a CSI Miami Episode that aired in 2004.
A link to the episode part, using the JBR DCC Deck can be found here:

This is a great video with lots of information! Thanks Carly! I saw the device in person and unfortunately it's unfinished. There are cables that are cut to size to be attached to the sockets and switches on the front and back side, but the insulation wasn't stripped and the sockets were never soldered. The DCC mechanism works and there are wires attached to the points on the read/write amplifier that can be used to read signals from the individual tracks, but the device that would be attached to those wires, is missing. The motherboard from the DCC900 is in there but it's cracked; it may have been damaged in transport or maybe it was broken before and maybe that's the reason why the device wasn't finished. I hope one day we'll be able to construct our own hardware to prove that it's possible (in some cases at least, as Carly describes) to get audio from an erased tape.

The FBI also claims they can recover part of an erased vhs tape I wonder if that really works perhaps similar to this machine here. I bought 2 batteries for my dcc portable I wonder if you did them?@@DRDCC
