It is a 1/4 track 3 3/4 / 7 1/2 inch machine, but some years ago I brought a brand new capstan for 7 1/2 / 15 ips running. I've just recently won an auction for a 1/2 track head block, and also hope to score some replacement record/replay/speed control boards for 15 ips running.

Hi David, Many years ago, I had wanted a tape player like that and it just never happened. And now the music I listen to, is my Loco's on M track. Enjoy you're fine machine. Ian.

Hi David, That Revox brings back a lot of memories from when I worked as a broadcast engineer. We had a lot of Revox PR99 machines, which look very much like yours, which I suspect is a B77. The PR 99 had professional balanced sound inputs on XLR connectors, and was fitted with broadcast specification 1/2 track heads. At 15 inches/second the quality was amazing. The frequency response was flat to 20 kHz, and there was minimal tape hiss. We also had earlier machines, but I forget who made them. It might have been Ferrograph. |
