Hey guys, I'm new to home recording as a user, but have seen how helpful you guys are with your vast sea of ancient knowledge. Well basically this guy isn't negotiating his "broken" Fostex A8 any lower than $200. everything works except the play button so I am assuming it might be the capstan belt. this would be my first fix it project and first reel to reel. the reason it caught my eye is because Mac Demarco recorded his albums "2" and "salad days" on an A8 which sound (and I can't emphasize enough) absolutely beautiful. But I also heard some mixed reviews about it, and I would obviously rather get a Tascam 388 but I don't really have the funds for $1,800.
