Wanted: 10.5" Reel to reel tapes

[Smegger68]

I've just splurged on a nice Akai GX-630D R2R deck and now find myself requiring some media. Does anyone have some decent tape they would fancy selling? Looking mainly for decent blanks on NAB reels but smaller 7" reels could be good too :D

James,

Just buy some new RMG LPR 35 (10.5 inch reel - 1100m - just under 48 mins @ 15 IPS or 96 mins @ 7.5 IPS). Great 1 mil thickness long play tape with the same tape characteristics as SM911 (the 1.5 mil equivalent). No tape shed or sticky shed syndrome. RMG Pyral make the old BASF/AGFA tapes. You can buy form Tapecity or Thomann. I bought 50 reels recently - perfect on my R2R machines.

No point in having great machines with no tape to play on them No different to buying 50 audiophile LPs cost wise :)
