Thanks for the info, I'll check it out.
I'm only interested in brand new tapes...I don't need the risks associated witn new old stock tapes.
Good Reel-To Reel Blank RecordingTape
It’s been 40 years since I’ve bought blank reel-to-reel recording tape.
I’m reviving my reel-to-reel game...I’m going to make recording of all of my vinyl that didn’t get released on cd or any other digital format.
All of the tape manufacturers that were around in the 70’s are long gone. Who’s making good 10.5 inch recording tape today, and where can I get it?

cleedsI have ripped all 1500 of my cds to a hard drive and put my cd's in storage. I have subscriptions to Qobuz, Amazon Music Unlimited HD, Pandora and Napster. I have just installed Roon to my streaming rig, and I'm thrilled with it. At 70 years of age, convenience is paramount, of course without sacrificing excellent sound quality. I have maybe a few hundred or so LP's that were never released on cd or in any digital format. A lot of those albums have only one song on the album that's listenable. I'm not going through the trouble of retrieving and playing those LP's for one song. I'm going to make a playlist of those LP cuts and record them to RTR. Besides, I love the sound of open reel recordings made from LP's. If you've ever heard an LP recorded to open reel, you'd know what I mean. Oh, and one other thing, I own a black Teac X-2000R open reel deck, and it is beautiful. I get to enjoy a beautiful audio sculpture while I listen to great music. Of course, I will still play my LP's periodically, I have over 3,000 of them, but for convenience purposes, if I have that recording on my hard drive or on Qobuz, I'll probably listen to it there rather than play the LP. Streaming music is now the overwhelming way I now listen to music. That being said, I will never give up my analog rig...EVER!!
