Wanted: NAB Hubs for Revox A77

[Idlewithnodrive]

Now that my Revox R2R machine has landed, seems to work well and sounds lovely, I'd like to fit the 10 1/2 reels that Alan from this forum kindly donated to me.

So, does anybody have a spare set of suitable hub Adaptors laying around that they would like to sell me ?

Just think of the warm glow you will get knowing that you have helped to ensure that a piece of vintage analogue loveliness is now being appreciated in a loving new home :)

How couldn't they work well AT ?

You would need to make spacers up. not much of a problem as the guy says, just a pair of cds stuck together.

Not a tight fit to the 10.5" reels apparently.

Those are compatible with any Revox. I use a set on my A77.

Anything Revox is big money and NAB adaptors either the basic ones or the ones with the metal addition are desirable so always sold for biggish money. In saying that things seem dearer now to when I bought my various bits and bobs.

One thing no one has mentioned so far is a head demagnetiser. That's the sort of thing you are after there http://www.amazon.com/Universal-DEMAGNETIZER-Cassette-Recorder-Track/dp/B003ZKLP4W
