Dave,
Print-through, tape deterioration, and the need to keep the heads carefully aligned are the issues I recall. Although not an issue with the Ampex 350s nor the portable Nagra, I understand speed stability can be with lesser recorders. Anyway, I never wanted an audio tape recorder for personal use. I did have an early video tape recorder, though. IIRC, it was surplus from some Silicon Valley enterprise, and very cheap.
