Reel to reel deck -Talk me in or out of buying


I can't help myself. I feel like an addict. I really, REALLY want to buy a reel to reel tape deck. But why? I don't own any reels. Can a case be made for buying a deck in this digital age? I'm salivating over a Revox g36 tube unit.

I'm tearing myself to pieces over here. HELP!

I'm a r to r junkie and have 3 decks.I have a Teac 4010SL that has been fully restored made back in 1969,But is not tube like Albert is getting.
I just love doing live recordings on my deck.The sweet sound of Analog is magic to my ears.
I have a live recording of a gospel southern song that would send chills up and down you and bring you to tears.
I just haven't had that type of response from CD playback,or SACD.
