Just wanted to introduce myself.


Hello everyone,
I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Ryan. I'm a young reel to reel and vinyl fanatic. I have several TEAC reel to reels, my favorite is my A-3340S. My username is my nickname, as I have a lisp on "S," which resembles a snake's hissing. Anyway, just wanted to say hey.
Thanks,
Ryan (Or Kaa, or Snake, whatever you want to call me. :) )

Nice deck @orpheus10 ! 3 speed deck with my favorite speed, 15 IPS! Great stereo mastering deck, I bet. :)
Thank you for the welcome @stereo5 ! That was a nice deck! I always liked them. :)
@jond Thank you for the welcome! Yes, reel to reel tape decks and the reels can get quite pricey, but they're definitely worth the extra buck if you love hifi sound. :)
Used a Techniques 1500 (may have been a 1700) around 1980 in a Hollywood duplication studio (made duplicates of radio commercial tapes for national/local distribution). Very nice machine! Didn’t they make R2R decks which recorded at 30 ips way-back-when? Ultimate sound! Finally, don’t forget to demagnetize your razor blades before making a splice!
