    Ah, I'm a selfish SOB - thanks to you and @overmodulated, I've spun my tape-counter to my teenages. Hope you enjoy the deck. BTW...are there any she-members here? Anyway, here's what you should play to the lady of your heart (off course, "my" reffers to "borchee's" :love3:):

    SOLD ! For sale Nakamichi BX-300 with new wireless remote

    @NavLinear, congrats on the deck. I know where you boys are heading, so, despite italo-disco beeing rather unknown (I suppose) in North America, I think this cassette will suit you well. Why?, you may wonder. Well, see for yourself:

    A Christmas gift the wife bought me for the man cave

    I'm sure soup flows silkier now, mashed potatoes are creamier, muffins airier, gorgonzola has more bite to it, spaghetti gained on linearity, wine bouquet on dimensionality and the overall tastestage is just a revelation. Aaaaamen!

    Capstan shaft thrust movement

    Hi Vince, I don't know, what Alex was reffering to...but, 0,1 and 0,2-0,3 mm correspond to Studer A721 (Revox B215/H1) cassette deck...amongst others, likely. And, if I reccolect correctly, his align tapes are made on a modified Revox B215. 0,1 mm should be the longitudioanal/axial "play" of...

    OK...my English isn't good enough to discern between singular/plural regarding member(s) and/or our/mine number of linear TTs...and Slovenian has dual also - so, plural means three, not two, or more to me...hence, Show off I get...I believe. Edit: Revox B790

    I did and at first glance it seems it could work with Revox linear trackers. Have you made it yourself or is it off the shelf?

    "Real time" tape counter experiments

    Yes, same thing. The only difference is the Studer has the calibrator on board (left front field with two holes marked -ADJ+), the Revox B215 not - well, mine does. The TDK MA90 is through: - counter 48:53 - stopwatch 47:17... even longer than the Sony. So, no universal counter calibration...

    "Real time" tape counter experiments

    Oh, bloody hell, it seems I deleted my own post while editing (posting additional info) - idiot! I didn't know this could be done. What was it again...something along these lines... The advantage of counting pulses of the reels and computing the time based on differences in angular...

    Live Test - Analog VS Digital - A REAL test

    I have absolutely no sane, nor valid, reason to challenge your opinion/preference/liking. Neither does anybody else. It is what this thread is about, that gets me going...and it's not the digital-vs-analog discussion, but the click-bait title! Choosing a high-speed tape machine, over a...

    Live Test - Analog VS Digital - A REAL test

    The title says A REAL Test! This is most definitely NOT! the way a test is/should be conducted...not even by a long stretch! The resolution doesn't matter, analog vs digital doesn't matter, how wrong/right the participants were doesn't matter! Performing a test whereat humans are testees...
