Tandberg tape decks


Does anyone know them well? I have a question about the model 330.Who owns or used to own one?How does it sound?Compared to Nak decks?I heard that owners of 3014As and 3004s laugh at Dragon owners, but this Tandberg is not that advanced.I am thinking about buying one in,I hope,excellent condition.Would really appreciate your help.

My first Tandberg was a 330. Later I traded up to a 3014, then a 3014A. The 3014A is, without question, the best cassette deck ever produced. (I A/B'd it with the Dragon for hours - no comparison.)

The 330 is not as good as either the 3014 or Dragon, though it's a wonderful deck and certainly built well. If you can get a good price on one, you won't be sorry.

Be sure to test the unit before buying, or get return priveleges, as there are many things that can go wrong in a mechanical unit such as this (belts, pinch roller and bearing wear, head wear, etc. and repair of an older unit can be difficult and expensive.

Have fun!
I.m lloking at a restored Tandberg 3034. I am not familiar with it but it appears to be a high quality deck. Does anyone have some thought on this unit. I sort of collect tape machines and have some fine Revox, Naks, Aiwa, Onkyo, Denon, and Teac. Never have had a Tandberg but they always appeared to be high quality on a par with the Revox.
The Tandberg 3014's break alot and the parts are hard to find beside that the decks are very nice sounding. The Nakamichi Dragon is nothing to laugh at, if you know what you're doing the Dragon is the best deck ever made. I know I had owned both and still have the Nakamichi Dragon.

HI...

I acquired one 310/2 for exactly $:10.00 American Dollars.
Works superb, after that the 2 belts was changed (Main + Counter).

Enjoy...
