Had this exact model in the late 80's. Absolutely loved it! 👍
Wow Bruce I really love it!
Thank you for sharing I used to have one back in the day just one of many .
But now I using my Sony cd boom box and it works great I love this stuff .
The main advantage of a three-head machine is really sound quality. A head optimized for playback is not ideal for recording, and vice versa. With three heads, both the playback and record heads do the best job for their respective tasks. I have 2 GX-7's (and about 20 other decks).
One the best decks I owned
It's an excellent deck for sure
Well put Bruce. I love my Nakamichi which sounds excellent, is 30 years old and it is using its original belt.
Which model, I always admired those
My first component cassette deck was the Pioneer CT-F2121 back in 1975. By early 80's I got an Akai GX-f31 and really dug that machine. Nice two color meters and features like Rec Mute and Rec Return made taping off-air a snap. I recorded my own tapes (no pre-recorded store bought jive), just riding the gain to perfection, or almost. I now use a Denon DRM-800A, it's boss. Have a lotta concerts/interviews and FM broadcasts from later 1970's to mid 1980's. I have to suggest using an expander with the tape format (either cassette or open reel). It can improve dynamic range noticeably. I've used a Pioneer RG-2 since 1981. This GX-7 looks to be a really swell machine, nice haul. The MPX filter is for cancelling the 19k broadcast "pilot signal" used by radio stations.
That is pretty sweet.
great video. thanks
Glad you liked it!
Watching your video is so much fun because it's good, attractive and engaging. Thank you. For a very enjoyable experience. You are so wonderful. Wishing you success and good health. Beautifully beautiful. I really like people like you. My good friend.&&₫&₫
