I just got started using reel to reel recorder. To me its the ultimate source of audio orgasm. I acquired a studer A810 modified to accept Tube Repro. The stock electronic is good but didnt float my boat but with Tube Repro, even though it still need some burn in time, it really rock. Dynamic, life like and fantastic bass slam. Unfortunately playing 2-3 tapes per day of the limited nos of tapes can be stale even though the sound is awesome.
So far I have purchased 29 tapes , 20 from tapeproject ( received 12 only - wish it could be faster) and 9 from aaanalog.de. After reading the twogoodears.blogspot.com, best audio blog as far as I m concern, I discover another source of mastertape by kostasmetaxas ( ebay) and purchased 8 tapes. Understand hardly any left but you can try to email him. Was told that myles and greg of UHA purchased some tapes from him. In fact he put up a rare stellavox TD9 recorder for sales. So tempted to buy something so rare but the thought of it falling "sick" and nobody to repair it discourage me from thinking further.
I wonder whether there is any other source of original tapes. Would want to buy up at least 100 tapes We wouldnt want to discuss pirated dub tape
