True, but if you had a Ferrari in the garage that was 50 years old. Would you let your local GM mechanic work on it? Probably would pay the cost necessary to get someone who knows what they are doing with it inside and out. And yes, that does cost. I know, I have 4 decks currently in the service center with a tech who knows what he is doing. I am sure it will be a pretty penny come the day to pick them up. However, I want to drive that Ferrari. LOL
Akakakak... reminded me of a scene from a classic movie we watched again the other night.
Yes, having that kind of accessory would probably make "The lake water" harder @ 50 something, I agree.
Do it, and I hope you don;t get the dirty looks the woman in the (usually vacant) vacation home next door
I agree, the pre-recorded are pricey via e-bay. I am using youtube via a subscription to record. I used to transfer my LP's to tape for posterity and keeping them preserved. However, don't take offense room, but I now play all my vinyl and don't worry about keeping them preserved so some lucky Bastard can find them at a thrift sale or estate sale after I am dead. I would rather laugh at everyone having to deal with my worn copies cause I enjoyed them LOL . But the act of recording is so much fun for me and finding the source of youtube allows me to cop recordings without having to buy them. The cassettes make that very economical. The reels are still pricey for a blank so that is used for "special" recordings such as the one planned tomorrow via Beau's recommendation. Bach organ music definitely deserves, in my book, a chance to break out a reel tape and see how well I can capture that low, low bass of the organ. The reel is definitely not my everyday medium. Don't want to wear out the head's anyway, as they are not easily replaced. Geez, you are all right , it is not a well supported medium anymore. I am one of Dio's "Last in Line" I will take the tape world to the bitter end and be one of the last to spin it all with my last breath LOL.
Same here bro. I don;t abuse them, wash them and treat them well but never understood the sterile glove treatment like they were a priceless Faberge egg
I remember the reviews in old Stereo Review Magazines.... They really liked the Revox Decks. I have heard they are really solid machines. Never knew anyone that had one though. I really like this one. Minty Shape indeed!
Who in 1975 was really loud . Fortunately we had close to the stage floors which actually was the best place to be.
I knew a couple of guys with Revox decks when i was in my teens. They were like this ultimate stereo thing when you would go over to listen to tunes. I was content with my humble HK1000 cassette deck
