No, as a matter of fact. The only machinery worthy of the trouble would be Revox or Studer, and it's much better to fix what's there than re-invent the wheel. Mind you, Decca did transistorise their C37s in the late 1960s...
I didn`t know that - was it a sucess?

I seem to remember the BBC exercise to transistorise and stereoify the BTR2 in the early seventies was not very successful.
