Reel tapes recommendations


Anyone know of a good source for good quality reel tapes?

I have already subscribed to the Tape project catalogue but would like to expand the library.

Any specific tapes that is worthwhile getting?

I am only interested classical and jazz.

Take a look at Quinton Records http://www.quintonrecords.com

They are located in Austria, but are shipping some very HQ product to the US

Keep your eyes open for estate sales in your area. Lots of times, there are reel to reel machines and tapes. I recently "fell" into a number of Reiner/Chicago RCAs on 7 inch reels as well as a number of Mercury recordings by Dorati, Paray, Fennell, etc. For 40 - 50 year old tape, most of these are still in pretty good shape and sound remarkable.
Thanks for the tip. I recently got some tapes from ebay and it sounded like two different music pieces are being played at the same time. Is it because I am using a 4 track tape head and recording is two track?

No,.... what you have is a condition called print-through. Somewhere in the tapes lifespan the tape was stored unevenly wound, which causes the print-through sensation you are hearing. The tape you have is ruined.
