Reel to Reel Tape


I have an analogue setup. Although I have a CD player in the system. But everything else is an analogue. I am listening to Reel to Reel tape decks, I have a few of them, and I also have DBX 224X-DS attached. Does anyone else have similar setup? I find the DBX to be quite awesome. What's your opinion?

One can get carried away with these decks. I have 12 decks. Driving my wife crazy so I am in the process of slimming down to about three. I almost bought a Studer A810 this weekend. Had to pass on it. I have Revox, Tascam, Tandberg, Pioneer, and Akai. I like the DBX 224X setup in my system, just with the tape deck. I also have some Dbx records. 
Speaking of cassette: I have Teac dual deck cassette with remote. I bought it 1985 brand new in New York while I was in college. I still have it and it still work perfectly. I have never even changed the belt which lead me to believe it's a direct drive deck. Dont know for sure.
I do not have a Studer machine. I said I was going to purchase a A810 but I had to pass.
Akai GX-747 DBX. As I stated earlier, I am slimming down on my reel to reel stick. A friend of mine want this one badly, so I will let it go to him. Others are  Revox A700, A77, B77, PR 99 (multiple of these), Pioneer RT909 (multiple of this one), Tandberg TD 20A, Technics 1500, Teac 1000x. It's crazy so I have to stop this collection practice and get rid of most of them. It will take time.
