* [[Sony TC-K 909 ES]]  
* Successor model: none. The TC-KA 6 ES marks the end of the high-quality ES series of cassette decks.
 
* Only cassette deck from Sony over 1000 DM in Germany, in the late 90s.
 
* The Sony TC-KA 6 led the test best lists of the Hifi magazine Stereoplay for a long time (1995-2000, see below).
 
* The [[Sony TC-KA 1 ES|TC-KA1ESA]] and [[Sony TC-KA 2 ES|TC-KA2ES]], released a year later, are rebadged mid-range decks.
 
* The unit shares a user manual with the [[Sony TC-KA 3 ES]]. The KA3 was intended for USA, Canada and other non-European market countries (see Bda, pg.2), the differences of both decks, e.g. sound heads, are listed in the BDA, pg.2
