    Brian Eno with Teac, Revox and Soundcraftsman.ok1p14avbmnz.png

    OK. Game on. ;)

    I'll see your Eno, with Chris Squire and his A77 -- and a Quad ss preamp (from the sleeve art of Fragile)...

    ... and raise you FZ with Dynaco (tube) amplification and (I think) a Scully deck.

    Dunno [EDIT: I didn't know] the Star Trek connection offhand, but I do know that we have, in large part, der Bingle to thank for Ampex's very existence (and the availability of tape for recorded media) after WWII. :)

    As an ego-centric aside (imagine that) due to the kindness of one of the local gurus (now, sadly, deceased), I have a pair of the same (or very similar) American Microphones here -- someplace. ;)

    (I think that Bing might've crossed paths, you know, on the road to someplace, with guy -- once or twice :#)

    @KennethSwauger I know I can't keep up with you in the arena of tape ephemera... but it's still fun to try! ;) Keep 'em coming & thanks!

    all of the cool kids have A77s.
    But, then again, the really cool kids have B77s.
    And the seriously cool kids -- have Studer A810s (or similar).

    The coolest of all the kids, the kids who wear winter coats all year long have a Studer J37.

    That's his new spot on our back porch. He can maneuver all on his own.

    There's a display shelving unit from a K-Mart I helped remodel sitting there. A travel/party cooler on top of the shelving unit. Then him. He found a way to get up there some how. :D He's like a Panther! 20"+ long or so before the tail. :p
    He can jump up 30" with ease. ;)
