Staying in & testing out a Sony Reel to Reel

I’ve re-written this opening paragraph over and over but, well, you know how it is…so let’s just move on to the video. 

This week I’ve been testing out a classic reel to reel. This is quite a long video, but for me at the moment I’m really in no rush. Some things just can't be hurried - they take as long as they take, if not longer. Patience seems to be the order of the day.

Take care of yourself,

NOTE: Following feedback - I've re-edited a couple of things. A new version is embedded and linked to above. 4K is still processing.

I'm thinking that perhaps one of the Audities posts would have been a better place to mention this but in any case, the label Section 9 appears to be releasing new titles on 5" 7.5IPS open reel tape. Looks like virtually all their physical releases have sold out thus far but their latest pre-order is still available at a mere $60! https://section9tapes.bandcamp.com/

That was on my list too - well the RS1700 and the there was the Akai GX-747 - too many to choose from when you can just have one.

Great review Matt, nice machine. I ended up getting an RT-909 a few years back and love it - that was my number 2. My number 1 was the Technics RS1500 but I could never find one in the UK for anything vaguely resembling a sensible price..
