Bonzo Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) I have a virtually mint Akai GX-630-SS, direct drive, Reel to Reel deck for sale. Last month is was professionally restored by Luis Galvez at Stereoadvior in Sacramento California. Luis was trained by Akai to be a factory authorized technician back in the day. He was the old Pacific Stereo's technician for R2R decks in the San Francisco Bay Area. There aren't many of those guys around nowadays. I have the receipt of the work that was done which I will include. The deck plays and records perfectly though I have only recorded two track. Everything works as it should. It's a stereo/multi channel system with four channel/four track or two channel/two track play and record. The GX glass and ferrite heads are virtually indestructible. It will accept up to 10.5" reels, 3 3/4 and 7 1/5 ips. I will include a 10.5" metal take-up reel with two hubs and a 7" plastic take-up reel. I don't think you will find a nicer one of these beautiful decks. They say "Tape is the new Vinyl" and I agree. It is the best and most accurate way to listen to recorded music IMHO. I will have it professionally packed and fully insured by FedEx. Local Pick-up is welcome in Redding CA. For local pick-up only, I will included several home recordings I received with the deck. Most made in the early to mid 70's. I will include a downloaded copy of the operators manual and throw in four quality 1 meter patch cords. This is a beautiful machine and will give you many years of great music! Why am I selling it you ask? My wife and daughter decided "we" need to take four of our grandchildren to Disneyland this summer. That Mouse can certainly drain the old bank account! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask, thank you! I am asking $650.00 plus shipping. I can do Paypal or Postal Money Order for payment.
