Who needs vinyl when you can play tape? :)

Alan and Al,

Thanks. It's taken me 35 years to get there, but I'm very happy now with my system. Just enjoying the music. :)

Allen and Ali,

Thank you very much. I'll have to do a short video of the Studer A807/II in due course (and then my High Speed Revox G36)

Been a bit busy recently. Anyway I plugged in my Revox G36 High Speed (serviced by Henry Dulat a few months ago) last night. Playing Steely Dan at 15 IPS. Sorry about the dark video.

Limitations of computers aside, Charlie, that sounds great! I can imagine there is good synergy between an R2R and horns, both making the most of the other's sonic virtues...

Quality! :cool:

Marco.

Aren't they a digital machine Stuart?.

Hi Alan;

They are completely analogue - the transport however was used for the PCM 3300 series of machines hence the similar appearance.

Both my Sony and G36 have visited Stewart - although the Revox only dropped in for a cup of tea :)
