Best Of
Always wanted one of these...
I have always admired Rotel from afar, well, my 'ol CEC CD3300 finally bit the dust after 24 years of service. Ordered a Rotel CD14MkII CD Player for the shop rig, and I'm pretty excited about it.

Re: Building a vacuum tube tape preamp
Back when that happened no one had today's phone/photo capability so only the HR people took the pictures. If that same thing happened today it would be everywhere.

Re: True 2-Channel Analog Additions
That's quite a SRA! (stylus rake angle for you non vinyl guys).
The MCX-3, designed by (for FR), in your best Samurai voice, say Ozawa-San! He started Shelter in '86.

Re: True 2-Channel Analog Additions
I have two AT32EII in my cartridge stable (would love to sell one 
), but I know the AT33PTG holds a special place in the lineup.
Not too long ago, I acquired an AT-F5 with low hours on it:
I think the suspension might be on Viagra...very stiff
For the last week, or so, I've had this Fidelity Research MCX-3 in the mix.
It has been part of my 'source' chain for some recent test recordings on an Akai X-1810D RTR tape deck.

Re: Teac A-6300 R2R For Repair
I've been slacking since March. I finally got back on the A-6300. Had some issues calibrating it in March after the recap, just let it sit. Near all the adjusting pots have a plastic shield. Dribbled some DeOxit in them, canned air them out. Much better.
Been watching ebay. Got a nice condition original manual for the A-6300 for $25 shipped.
When taking pics of heads, it helps to have a piece of paper under them to reflect light on them. I tried some thin foam packing material. It's a great diffuser but the heads reflect the irregular surface which hides the true condition of the heads. These have very little wear for the age of deck.
Foam reflector under heads.
Paper reflector under heads.
Hopefully almost done..
