| Reel to Reel decks Mikelavigne, can you discribe the audible difference between 2 track and 4 track playback? | |
| Reel to Reel decks Mikelavigne, is your technics 2 track or 4 track. Which ones are direct drive? | |
| Reel to Reel decks Mikelavigne, how many reel to reel tape decks do you have at present? | |
| Reel to Reel decks T_bone, I decided to explain my statement "The playback is better than the source"Most decks record "forward" and "reverse", they do this by utilizing 4 tracks on the 1/4 tape. A 2 track uses the entire width of the tape in one forward sweep. The ... | |
| Reel to Reel decks Handyman, where are you? If you are going to buy pre recorded tapes, they are very expensive, and blank tape is not cheap. Are you still interested in a reel to reel? | |
| Reel to Reel decks T_bone, I have never read more "gobbledegook" in my life. You should have been a lawyer. I believe you wrote my last divorce papers. | |

| The Sound or Music This debate is quite facinating. I have come to the conclusion that we realy don't know who we are; we only think we know. We act and then we give a reason for our actions; as opposed to having a logical thought out reason for taking them in the f... | |
| Reel to Reel decks I have a Technics reel to reel. I use it to record my vinyl. I recomend Revox because you can still get parts; although I have never had a problem with the Technics. | |
| Why not horns? Horns are music and instrument selective. No speakers can reproduce the sound of a sax better than a horn. All speakers are music selective to some degree. |
