VSF600 or something had 4 heads!!

    Found one on ebay! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-A...8AAOSwumNff4jT
    From experience,an excellent machine

    The actual remote control had pages! The instruction book was like the Sony's you describe. Don't think I got to read much of it before the machine was nicked...

    I've read this thread with interest, back in the day 1990's i had an Akai VS A-650 which i used for recording my LP's onto as well as watching films obviously, i remember it gave far better SQ than the top of the line Akai cassette deck with the glass ferrite tape heads i had at the time, the good thing about the Akai VCR was that it had phono input and output and a variable phono out i had it hooked up to the stereo and was amazed at how good it was, i'm sure it had a half speed setting that apparently gave better quality recordings.
