My first two RTRs, only new to this territory.

Awesome. Nice setups.

Here are my only two R2R's in their respective environments (for the time being). Sony TC-765 and Tandberg 9200XD

Now that's obscene... Beautiful, but obscene! You're obviously not one to be outdone!

John: Looks great there. I haven't seen an updated picture of your stereo equipment room(s) since your last move to a new place. My walk-in closet has a bit of clothes and shoes, but I like yours better.

Full of wing tips and Italian leather?

Johns system pics are great though. Love all the vinyl.

More like classic Adidas Tobaccos and 70's polyester bell bottoms.

Matt: Always liked the contrast between your silver Teac X-2000R and the black Akai GX-747. Which deck do you use the most these days?

Nando.

 

[Des_Lab]

Nando: My silver X-2000R isn't even technically in service right now. Right now I only haul it out once every three or four months to run for a few minutes just to keep it in operational condition. I'd say that my usage right now is probably 60% the Akai, 35% the X-2000R(bl) and 5% the TASCAM 3030. I use the Akai mainly as a playback only deck so I use it for most of the miles.

It's a piece of semi rigid foam left over from a Speaker re-build. the table legs kind of sunk in and firmed up,, great ISO
