Re: Reel to reel revival
What is Revox quality? According to my A77 sales bumf its W&F (all at 3.3/4ips) is 0.1%, frequency response is 30Hz to 16kHz +2/-3dB, SNR 64dB. My oft giggled at Grundig TS945 is +/-0.09%, 20Hz to 16kHz and 62dB.
Doesn't seem much in it to me.
The W&F is weight of flywheel. The frequency response is the head, tricky one there, but try Photofabrications who will etch almost any metal, even reduce its thickness if wanted. SNR is electronics, been done, can be repeated.
As has been said, if model engineer's can make the amazing things that they do, then a tape transport deck seems pretty mundane.
