Time for a science project

Tape Trail

Reel to reel, cassette and other analogue tape formats.

I am enjoying my recently restored (by J-Corder) Pioneer 707. However, different pre-recorded tapes offer some interesting challenges. Barclay-Crocker tapes are encoded Dolby-B. Some recordings need more high end; others can use a bit of high-end taming.

So, just for fun, I have added to my system (just after the Pioneer's output) an ART Eq 341 graphic equalizer. Yes, an equalizer can add noise to the signal path, though the ART seems quiet and neutral, and designed for professional use. In any case, this is a fairly inexpensive experiment and I am looking forward to the results.
