Heideana Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Does anyone know of a site with information about Technic reel-to-reels? I'm eyeing one on e-bay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=ADME:B:BCA:US:11&Item=290040072478 and trying to decide its' what I want. Back when I had an Akai reel-to-reel, I lusted for a Technics deck but I'm not sure if they're as good as we used to dream they were....[8] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnBob Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 This is a first rate machine - equivilent to the Otaris and Crowns of the time, maybe not quite as rugged. For what it's worth, these were in production long after Otari, Crown and many others got out of the open reel market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Hardy Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 The RS-1500 and its kin is reputed to be a very good machine. I believe Doc Bottlehead has been using an RS-1500 transport for some of his fiendish commercial tape experiments. www.bottlehead.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
