I have an AKAI GX630D in almost brand new condition, in original box and packing. It has very little use but since it was stored for ages, it has a ceased motor. Waiting to get to fixing it up.

Hi Folks,
I'm new to reel-reel-. Have recently acquired a Grundig TK 46 in very good condition. Still to get physical delivery of it. But, I was wondering if anyone knows anyone who has some good recordings of English/Western music on spool? Would be grateful is anyone can help in this regard.

He he he vinylshakti. I have a bunch of reels as well as a few reel to reels players too.
I may be getting one today. I have had the akai 4000, pioneer 707, sony 580 and several more. Teac, akai, pioneer etc. I still own a GX365 akai, a sony 752 (I think) and a few more and have lots of music as well. The reels have worked well, I dont believe they sound as good a s vinyl, but they also dont deterioate as fast. I put these all in storage because we were going to move but then our house didn't sell and we ended up not moving. Need to get the vinyl and the reels out of storage.
Cool.

Congratulations on acquiring a wonderful piece, VinylShakti.
I too am looking to buy a reel to reel or spool tape recorder and would be glad to hear of any that may be for sale.

I would be glad to hear about the pros and cons of owning an Akai 4000 from those who own or have used it in the past.
There is one on sale in Gwalior on olx.in for Rs 10,000. Would it be a good buy or can I get something better for the price? I would like to hear of any other spool or reel to reel tape recorders that may be for sale.

I've had a few of these. Including one I own now that needs a pinch roller.
The speed switch is a bushing on the spindle. A bit weird, and easy to lose. So make sure the thing has the bushing and make sure the rollers are OK, that's about it, pretty decent deck.
Cool.

Hello AnilKumar
Just saw ur post saying a brand new R2R stored unused for last 25 years...
I have same issue with my R2R, I have Akai 270D in real new condition which was unopened since 1976.
Now when I am trying to record some song over to reel from LP's....But recording signal gets weaker right after 2 mins of recording....no matter how many times I tried it....Any suggestions by Reel experts...

you may need to take a look at the caps in the bias oscillator section, this is the usual pain area with reel-2-reel recording issues and its calibration can also be quite taxing.

Worst machine which I had owned. This machine is very famous for the problematic rewind and fast forward operation. 99% of the this model machines do have this problem. No long lasting remedy. I suffered a lot.
