Re: Luxman K-05 tape deck on Ebay

Said (by the seller) to rival the Nak Dragon, anyway.

Nice deck, but could it really be that much better than other top-range 3-head decks that can be had for much less?

The ad says: "Unit is in working condition but due to complications of international returns the unit is being sold as is. This is not a cause for worry"

Not a cause for worry until it breaks down.

Having a vintage piece of electronics that's so "rare" isn't a good thing, in my opinion. If I spent several hundred bucks on a deck of that vintage, I'd be very concerned about parts availability. You can still get parts for most Naks, I think. TASCAM also still fully supports parts for the 122 decks.

Nice machine, but at the price it'll go for, I'd pass.

Cheers,
Bobbo :-)
