Guys and gals,
Been making some tapes from vinyl to reel to reel,using some older Quantagy 407 at 7.5 ips.My deck is a Revox B-77 mk2 2 track.Very happy with the outcome!.
I would like to purchase some new Emtec tape from USR.They sell a sampler pack with 4 tapes on 5" reels for $30 bucks.
Sm911
sm900
sm468
lpr35.
Would this be the way to go to see what tape sounds the best with the Revox,or perhaps I could by a calibration tape and set the deck for the best tape?.
I would think the B-77 was biased for Quantagy 456? or similar.
I have never biased a deck before but have the service manual and would like to learn.Thanks,Rob.
