RE: Revox A77 high speed - with speakers

***I love analog, and I have always heard of the superiority of Reel to Reel playback over even good vinyl***

That is, generally speaking, not correct, and most certainly not true of industrial prerecorded tapes.

Ultimately, that can be true, but only for higher grade equipment and material - specifically, 15ips, 2-track copies of the master tapes.

The deck you got is a fine one, but not at that level.
