    Electronically superior, but ergonomically inferior to the equivalent Ferrograph. Vortexion were the only other manufacturer to use the Series 7 deck.

    For me it would be a Leevers Rich E6 tape machine as used by the BBC in the '60s.


    If it was good enough for the late (and lamented) Delia Derbyshire of the (late lamented) BBC Radiophonic Workshop, it's good enough for me.

    But then I would be content with a Studer C37, B62 or A80!

    I tend to go want vintage more around guitars. A nice Strat or Les Paul would suit me fine
    Loves anything from Pain of Salvation to Jeff Buckley to Django to Sarasate to Surinder Sandhu to Shawn Lane to Nick Drake to Rush to Beth Hart to Kate Bush to Rodrigo Y Gabriela to The Hellecasters to Dark Sanctury to Ben Harper to Karicus to Dream Theater to Zero Hour to Al DiMeola to Larry Carlton to Derek Trucks to Govt Mule to?

    (1) Thorens TD224 turntable

    (2) Nakamichi TX-1000 turntable

    (3) Yamaha GT-2000 turntable

    (4) Mission 767 loudspeakers

    (5) Pentachord Pentacolumn loudspeakers.

    With most of these, it's less the lack of availability, more the lack of availability at a price I can afford! That said, I've never seen a pair of Pentacolumns for sale anywhere.
