What's the current go to source for belts for R2Rs? The tape counter just quit on my sony TC-388-4, so it's probably time to do all of them. Local to DC would be great, but I'm guessing mail order is the best bet? Any recommended sources? In other news, I thought that 4-track on a Columbia tape meant quad, but it's actually two sided stereo. But the Horowitz tape I got for a buck has never been played... until now! 7.5ips, I'm happy. Plus I only have two channels on the system the R2R is hooked to anyway. My first prerecorded media, I've had this boat anchor for something like three years now for this moment <G> (OK, and because wheels and meters are cool.)
I ask rather than searching because most of the search results say Marrs but I've heard that they're not the most reliable anymore, or have they got their issues sorted?
There is a kit on Amazon sold by Bob's Vintage-Electronics Parts. Good quality/seller?
Thanks for any advice!
