Re: NEWB here looking into a R2R for first time

The Teac will (not may) need service. The Akai may not, but period service/maintenance of these machines is a must anyway. And if the Axai goes down with anything serious, you'll likely have a really hard time getting it fixed, as Sour milk moon notes. Both of the units you name are really old, even as reel-to-reel decks go. I'd take a flyer on one of them anyway, just to see if you like the whole reel-to-reel thing. Good luck.
