I have the opportunity to acquire a full functioning Ampex 102
This is pretty rare in Australia
It comes with 1/2 heads which I intend to use for recording
I was planning on fitting 1/4 inch heads for prerecorded tapes playback
Will there be any issue swapping them over?
I will need to buy some calibration tapes for the two heads
Someone had mentioned a good tape Repro pre at reasonable price was it from De Havilland ?.
Any other tips and tricks be grateful to receive
I have about forty recordings already live of jazz in storage
Thx
