FW,Last year I leaped on board .....
Thank you for your reply which has both educated me and given me more food for thought as to what tape i should concentrate on.
I have had me B77 4 Track for 1 year but only recently began to really scratch the surface (with reading such groups)I have twice attempted to book my deck into the workshop of Brian Reeves in Cheadle. However, each time Brian was on holiday. I am aware the B77 needs to be callibrated to a specific tape in order for it to perform at its optimum.
There-in lies my dilemma: I have in my possession a number of different tapes. including: Zonal 675, Ampex 456, TDK SA and LX, AGFA PE36 and as yet to arrive, BASF 900 Maxima and EMTEC-BASF 468.
From the above list, it strikes me that here in the UK, Zonal 675 is the more abundant tape to be found on ebay. Should I opt for this calibration or for the AGFA or BASF tapes? I ask this because I have discovered a American company. RMG International have purchased the manufacturing rights to produce BASF SM900, SM911, SM468 and AGFA LPR35 tape.
Have you had experience with these tape types, (BASF & AGFA)?
