RE: "Starter Deck"

I owned a Teac X-1000R and a Revox A77. Both were brand new at the time and I personally biased and equalized both for Scotch 207, which was one of the best tapes available in those days. There was no comparison between the Teac and the Revox; the Revox kicked the Teac's ass.

I don't know what the problems was with your A77, but I owned two of them and they were perhaps the best consumer tape deck every made. I think you just had to know how to adjust them properly. I was a PMEL tech at the time and I had access to fully equipped electronic laboratory. The Revox A77 was a class act.

Best regards,
