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?

Almandog, I use a Sony APR5003 and it blows away my VPI scoutmaster w grado sonata.  Tables are good until you
hear a reel to reel with good tapes

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.
