tubes and spinny things!
I was in MI clearing out my storage locker and getting things I had left at my grandfather's place...he asked me if I wanted to take his TC-630 home, so I did. He bought it new in 1969, IIRC it was $499 back then at Krum's Photo! Except for the original mics (which were damaged long ago) it's complete, including the manual and schematic. The lid speakers are 5.25" full-rangers driven by a 15wpc quasi-complemetary cap-coupled amplifier. It's astonishingly good for such a system. I grew up playing with this recorder, and hope to keep it running nicely. Grandpa kept it in good repair, though the main belt is slipping and the Inst Stop (pause) lever doesn't work. Hopefully I'll be able to get her back to 100% function, it's a gorgeous-sounding tape machine.
