reel to reel


I'm interested in getting one. Does anyone know a good source? Which brands/models are the ones to get? I've heard that the Otari is good and the Technics RS-1500. What are your thoughts/experience?

I've already look at The Tape Project website...

Thanks

I owned Teac top of the line X-2000R and X-1000R, but the sound of the Akai top of theline GX-747DBX is much better.

Have an Otari MX5050 II B, a Technis RS1500US and a Tascam 3340-S. The Otari plays both NAB and IEC EQ'd recordings, the Techics is an NAB only deck. Both are half track recorders with quarter track play heads for playing commercially recorded tapes. The Tascam is 4 channel quarter track for playing quad tapes.
