Some Reel-to-Reel Porn

Granddaddy of machines? We know who used this machine? Three of them were in the studio.

 
Home of Ki Choi, one of the most knowledgable people about tape machines and collector extraordinaire! Ki also has a fabulous system with the latest MBL 101 speakers!

Rare Lyrec machine....

 
Telefunken M15 was used by Jan-Eric Persson when recording the highly cherished Opus 3 records.

 
Two (?) AS members own a slightly newer version of the UHA deck. Know Christian got his; Jock??? Nice turnkey, no fuss, no muss approach for anyone getting into R2R. Playback only machines start at around $8000 and run to $30K depending on features. Comes with 2 year warranty!

 
For fellow tapeheads... Check out Giorgio's setups! Love the custom 1st gen nagra t audio.

Can you name all the decks in the video? :) Giorgio makes Ki look like a pauper when it comes to machines. Never thought it possible. He also does the work on the machines and their specs are second to no machine. The FR and distortion numbers are amazing.

I have three of his tapes in for review. He used an A80 slaved to something like 15 Telefunken M15s.
 
I know, it's astounding. I bought some taudio replacement belts from Giorgio and he sounds like one of the most experienced nagra rtr techs still working. How do you like the tapes?

In the process this week of really listening to them!
 
Looking forward to your thoughts on the tapes. I'm curious about two of the three (not so taken with hendrix one).
