A very, verynice classic protbal reel-to-lreel tape recorder, And as you read the description you can see plenty of typos. But I don;t feel like correcting them…

Quick functionality demonstration of a vintage Pioneer RT 1020L reel to reel tape deck. Not a high tech test, just a quick demo showing that the player does record and play.

Testing out the R2R player I bought. It didn’t work properly, as seen in the video, so I had to return it. Video filmed on: 8/3/2011 12:19 PM

A nice classic little Claricon (made by Hitachi) 3-inch reel to reel tape recorder. It runs at approx. 7 1/2 IPS (19 cm/s). DC bias, permanent magnet erasure. Manual level control. Transistors are germanium. If you request, I may make a video showing the inside. Anyone that thinks these little rim-drive type of recorders are worthless and should be thrown away is wrong. These little recorders are really fun to collect and play with. I recommend that now one throws these away or breaks them. They are collectible, fun pieces, no longer manufactured.

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Although there is no use opportunity as a not much original multi-recorder now, it is preeminent for the degree of appeal of a level meter?

Vintage Magnavox reel to reel

Just testing out a 4-track reel-to-reel that I bought today for .60. Featuring a local 1984 recording by The Mynx. I believe the machine was first made around 1973-74. For what it is and the condition it is in, it was a steal!

This is the great Studer A820 loaded with 1/4″ tape, 1/2″ conversion kit is visible in the box on the left part of the bridge. Audio your listening to is the actual recorder playback

A classic from the late 60s.
