If it uses synchronous motors, it will not run at the correct speed at 50Hz.
Can Sony TC-377 reel to reel tape deck with 60 cycle power be used with 50 cycle power
I have a Sony TC-377 reel to reel tape deck. It uses 110 volt power with 60 cycles. I would like to use it overseas where there is 220 volt power with 50 cycles. I purchsed a step down power converter which would convert 220 power to 110. Can this reel to reel tape be used in 50 cycles power? I would be converting lots of old 7 inch reel music into digital. Will this unit work with 50 cycles?
