Rider of the ARPocalypse
Trying to free up space (for MORE GEAR????)

Otari MX5050BII-2. This came to me not working, and so I got a working unit and this was going to be my spare. So I fixed it instead. (Power supply problem) Heads in good shape, photos on request. Would like $400.00 including shipping "lower 48" USA only. (This beast is heavy and big, so shipping alone will be around $150 or so (do it right or not at all)) I also have a complete manual I can photocopy.

I have 3 Fostex 8 tracks to sell as a bundle:

80 #1 not working but with good heads (I'm guessing capstan motor) Also, the screw on teh capstan cap is stripped. This is/was a parts machine for:
80 #2 working but heads could use a relap (misaligned, and uneven wear)
A-8 working (4 in version) heads also in really good shape

LEDs work on the both 80s I had planned to make one good machine out of the 80s, and maybe see about using the analog VU's from the A-8 to Frankenstein an 80 with analog VUs, and avoid the LEDs going out problem. I might be able to get to that project in 2039....

I'd like to get $550.00 for the lot. That will include shipping in "lower 48"

SAE Parametric EQ. I have to test this thing again. Paid $100 for it. Never used it. Bright idea to use with my Teac 5 board, but I already have two other EQs.....
 
Do you still have the Otari? And just to confirm: it is working, correct?

I still have the Otari. I will fire it up and post some pictures here. Worked fine a few months ago.
