Thank you for letting me visit your imperious (a world of technology) and hoping that it does not remain in the past and can be passed on to new generations
@5thcomm Thank you Sir! I had a video of my home stereo system on my original YT channel (which is gone...) and I had my Akai GX-747 and my Teac X-1000r reels on it. I have a few vids left with my turntables amps tube preamps and tube phono amps on them in here somewhere. YOU have a KILLER setup going on back there!!!!
Hey Big max. I have a same unit. But the tension arm of mine not retract perfection. I clean old grease,but still not work right yet. Can you me how to clean correctly. Thanm you
@@5thcomm Thx for responding! Oh great, I'm over in Henderson. The play wheel is rubbing...maybe a brake issue? I bumped the 10.5 reel against the wall while pivoting the unit, & it hasn't been right since..smh,😧 FF & Rwd seen to work fine.

Fantastic deck, Matt (and not a bad price)! Did you end up replacing both tension belts and the counter belt?
Thanks EL. Tension arm belts were replaced, counter belt was ok.

I need you to work on my deck!
Thanks for the demo. What is your favorite brand of open reel deck?
My favorite is the Pioneer RT 909. It is by no means the best, just my favorite.
