    10,000 hrs on heads ? Yeah, I'd say that it has "some" wear! LOL!!

    Check out this TASCAM 38 auction. Too funny! :D "The Recorder is fully operable and the heads were showing some wear in the 10,000 range." :eek: http://cgi.ebay.com/TASCAM-38-8-Track-1-2-Reel-Recorder_W0QQitemZ140059642481QQihZ004QQcategoryZ41480QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item140059642481...

    FREE TASCAM 22-2 heads

    Headblock was taken from a damaged in shipping 22-2. Heads appear to have low amount of even wear. Please see picts. ...I'm not in it for the money and if anything good can come of it, I'd rather pass the heads to someone who can actually use them now or in the future as replacement for their...

    Anyone want to trade a 1/2" callibration tape for a TASCAM 22-2 headstack ?

    Hi, This may be a tall order but here goes .... I have a headstack from a very low use TASCAM 22-2 (will also fit other models) and rather than selling it, I thought someone here might be interested in trading it for a 1/2" callibration tape. It doesn't have to be a proper and original MRL...

    Nautilus Super Discs ???

    Hi, Does anyone know about these Vinyl LP's ? They're supposed to be something called "Half speed master pressings". What does that mean ? Are these worth the extra cost of regular LP's ? I found some new old stock of some 70's artists and wanna know if they're truly superior to oridinary LP's...

    CD: A Lie Repeated Often Enough Becomes Truth

    I found this perusing the net. It's most fascinating, especially that it echos many of our members' thoughts on this very subject. The article is from the early 80's. :eek: Source: http://www.stereophile.com/asweseeit/194/

    The TASCAM forum ???

    Is it just me or is the TASCAM forum (on this board) dying ? Did everyone go over to the other place ... tascamforums.com ? :confused:

    Anyone have direct experience with openreel.net (Kawashima Audio Service) ?

    Although I'm passively familiar with them and I've heard their name mentioned on this board, I would like to know from people who actually ordered from this company and their experiences ? Are they legit and reliable ? Are their prices fair ? How good is their packaging for transit etc .. ...

    Do NOT deal with these eBay sellers!

    ....or at least use MUCH caution when doing so: portauthority ...and, vintage_audio_shop If you get your tape deck in a non damaged condition then consider yourself very lucky and remember that even if your recorder does not have apparent external damage, it most likely has internal issues...

    Headphones for sale

    Hi, Please read the following very carefully. I have 2 headphones for sale. One is a Fostex T20 model and the other the AKG 240 Monitor. The Fostex spent most of its time being unused and is in like new condition, minus having "HP-1" etched on the Right side on the plastic ear cup. This can be...

    Interesting article (a bit about the TASCAM 388 too!)

    I just found this and thought you might enjoy the read, especially the notes about the 388 and also Analog in general. Nothing extraordinary, just interesting I think. It's from Electronic Musician: Tape Head It's always tempting to get scientific about reproducing the sound of old records...

    EMTEC - RMGI tapes selling like crazy!

    I just talked to an EMTEC - RMGI authorized distributor and they said they (and RMGI-USA) have trouble keeping the tapes in stock and currently awaiting new orders! WOW! Who would have thought it a year ago?! :D

    Emtec SM468 .. Tim, guys .. anyone!?

    I've read on some of the news groups that the SM468, although 1.5 mil and thicker than say a Japanese made tape of 1 mil, such as the Maxell UD series, is equally as stiff or even less so than the thinner 1 mil Jap tapes! :confused: Is this true and how good (or bad) of an idea it would be to...

    Is my demagnetizer working ?

    I have a TEAC E-1 in apparently unused condition. It buzzes when I turn it on but it fails to affect my magnetometer no matter how close I get to it. Ok, maybe the pointer moves a hairline but I'm not even sure it's from the E-1, it's so slight. I know the magnetometer works 'cause I get a...

    My packing project with pictures!

    The idea was pretty straight forward but its execution was long, exacting and tireing. Just wanted to share with you guys the project that I've worked on for weeks. It's more or less a brick by brick picture showcase of how I packaged my TEAC A-3440. Truthfully, any deck can be packaged in a...

    Don't you just love ads like this ?

    Check out the attached ad. Not only do they trash their own analog product of yesteryear and make disparaging remarks about, but it's also very clear that they have the model # and info wrong! It should be the 3440 and not 3340S! :rolleyes: I can just imagine a clueless me wondering about...
