    Looks good with a manufacturer producing a NEW R2R , no indication on price as yet

    Seems it may be a spoof

    Looks a very sleek machine - basic on the outside but it obviously is fully software controlled.

    Guessing at a price is tricky but allowing for fiscal adjustments etc. it seems to be the equivlent of a Revox B77 which in the mid 1980's cost £850.00.

    I would imagine a price tag of around £4000 - £7000.

    We may be pleasantly surprised though.
