I wouldn't mind a tape machine, if I came across something relatively new/reconditioned knowing that it was still serviceable in the future too.
It will hook up to the C1000T for recreational recording & playback. Of course there is the expectation of superior performance, but I don't want a massive A820. Maybe an A810?
Does anyone have any basic pointers to consider when buying vintage reel to reel equipment?

Steve.......I have a Revox B77 Mk2 with 1/2 track heads. It is an excellent reel to reel tape machine. I record using 7 1/2 ips, and the results are fantastic. I purchased my machine new, and it has never given me a moments trouble. I can highly recommend the B77 Mk 2. You will love it.
