Just picked this up - a SONY TC-WR901 ES. Looks like new and sounds very good. Bought locally from a guy, paid $100. A sweet addition to my collection!

I would say that is well-bought, tapeman. I'm also interested in how the Super Bias works. Any particular tape you like to feed it? I just picked up a couple of Sony Metal SR 90s, which would go well with that deck.

Cool Sony Deck. I have two older Sony ES Dual Well decks. They sure are good looking and packed with features. :thumbright:

I'm going to send it to my tech for a once over, once I get it back I will post recording results and my impressions of its performance.

I don't have any images handy but here are the two Sony Decks I have. Mine both have wood side panels. Let us know what you think after you have it tuned up.

You are right, Larry: I meant to say Phoenix Limited Edition Type IV C-60 . I was thinking a Sony tape would be quite complimentary for tapeman's Sony deck. And I haven't unsealed my lot of Phoenix metal tapes since buying them. I forecast the price of these to go through the roof next year, once all have been sold and aren't available, anymore. Then, who will be laughing!
