The Phase Linear model 1000 Autocorrelator noise reduction system is what I use with my RT 707. It is simply incredible. MOST reels were not recorded with dolby but there is still significient hiss from the tapes. The Model 1000 has user adjustable settings that allow you to fine tune the amount of noise reduction without comprimising high end frequency response. You can get them for cheap too. EBAY!!! Best prices.
Should I get Dolby B decoder for my open reel deck
I'm confused! Recently, I purchased an RT707 reel deck and upon enquiring about where to buy pre-recorded reels some one on Audiogon tells me about getting a Dolby B decoder. Problem is, NONE of the pre-recorded reels I own (about 14)were recorded with Dolby, at least the boxes don't say so. I think this is a little odd, considering they are all from major labels. Could it be thagt they WERE recorded with Dolby amd merely not listed?
