Yeah, they were over at Tapeheads when Tape Trail started -- I know because I was one of the people who encouraged Tape Trail to GET started. I figured there had to be enough interest here to sustain it. Obviously I was wrong.

The irony is that reel to reel tape is -- or can be -- the best SOUNDING medium/format there is today, assuming you're willing to put up with its admittedly extensive downsides. Is that recognized at Tapeheads? I haven't been there recently.

IMHO, the downsides are not enough to discourage people, even some will spend a fortune fixing up a technically inferior deck.

Proudly serving content-free posts since 1984.

  That suggests one of the downsides -- finding a tech who knows his way around a tape deck :-)
