Home Tape Trail

Reel to reel, cassette and other analogue tape formats.

I was in love with Tandberg TD20A...

...until I opened one up. Its internal construction reminds you mostly of a cheap consumer VCR.

I have one, the desirable high speed 2-track model, and it does sound very good, but if you look at its reproduce circuit you will scratch your head in disbelief.

Roberts was one of the pioneers, it was a really nice recorder for its time, but it did not have the GX heads.

We agree on the A77 - a proven workhorse, easy to service, parts widely available, universally loved.
