Is anybody did it? i.e. substitute the heads from one deck to another?
as it nearly impossible to find Technics RS-1500 4tPB head.
Head block cost more than a whole recorder.
But I can get cheap Teac A 2300S and for more money, Sony 850 or may be something else.
So main idea to substitute the heads. Of course with electronics adjustments, but this is not a problem. My concern right now about the size, mechanically fit and sound quality.
Or even I can look for another reel decks to cannibalize the proper heads.
any ideas?
