...no way. I owned (past tense) a Revox. The A77 MKIV version at that.
I did like the way you linked Studer and Revox with that slash thingie, like they were in the same league.

I won't be dissing my A77, though -- as Mr. Stellavox did its rehab (Starting with two organ donors that I supplied and adding a third of his own provenance to come up with one good one)...
My little trove of foundling MX5050s has a way to go before coming world-class... but at least the price was right.
all the best,

As a "starter deck", I tell folks thinking of getting into tape and NOT having a machine - the A77 and it's variants can't be beat for reasonable starting price, reliability and good sound - for both recording AND playback.
If you then like the "hobby", you can take off from there; sell the Revox - and maybe even get your money back!

"My" foundling Otaris have - as they say - been 'rode hard and put away wet' by their erstwhile owners (a local radio station)... but the price was right...
or, is it of Otaris as is said of a certain European automobile?
