@rbtstock: PS Audio "publishes" a great online magazine: Copper. It's free, and is delivered to your computer's in box. UK reviewer Ken Kessler (Hi-Fi News & Record Review) is up to Chapter 11 in his Copper column dedicated to all things reel-to-reel. Highly recommended.
What should I be looking for when buying my 1st Reel To Reel ?
Good day everyone, This forum has never failed me, so here I am again, I would like to know from experienced Reel to Reel enthusiasts, what a first time buyer should be looking for and any particular brand they have had success with,I have done a little research and know I should be looking for 71/2 -Ips-15-Ips, but the foggy area for me is this: I am mostly interested in playback, so do I need a 2 track, 4 track, etc,I don't want to spend for something I don't need, however unit quality and sound of course is most important criteria, any thoughts recommendations or comments are most welcome
Regards
