For those complaining about the paucity of reel-to-reel tapes. Currently there are now 21 companies releasing reel-to-reel tapes. You can see a few of my reviews about the tapes on PF.

<< Also makes me wonder what it's gonna cost?  =)  Maybe this will inspire TEAC, SONY, Pioneer, AKAI,  etal. to return to manufacturing machines again.  Wouldn't that be wonderful? >>

The Revox/Horch House deck will start at $5000. It will be a modular approach with the entry level machine, prosumer machine capable of only playback all the way up to a full blow, studio machine.
<< It's hard to imagine that it will be manufactured in either Germany or Switzerland at such a low entry price.  Maybe it will be built in China with a ReVox label? >>

The deck will be made in Bratislava.
