A tape transport capable of receiving cassettes of varying sizes (20,21,22), one at the time for play, includes a cassette indexing mechanism (27,37a,37b,37c,73) capable of selectively positioning the spindles which engage the reels of an associated cassette at a selected distance corresponding to the reel-center-to-reel-center distance of the cassette. Mis-insertion apparatus (23) associated with the transport provides that any cassette smaller than the cassette receiving opening in the transport will be protected against being improperly inserted into the transport. <IMAGE>
