what turntable/tonearm/cartridge/phonostage are you using? Knowledge of those may help folk to recommend a tape deck with a similar/sympathetic sonic signature.

Seems like some tuning will be involved. I think a vintage, restored Tandberg may suit you. Perhaps a 330 or a 440. The Revox machine, mentioned below, is also supposed to be good-sounding, though I've never heard one.
