Any Otari MX-5050 MkIII owner in here?.

Tape Trail

Reel to reel, cassette and other analogue tape formats.

Could you please share some experience with them. I bought one from a recording studio somewhere out in the East hopefully it'll arrived in a couple of weeks or so. He said that he hasn't used this lately as he's moving to an all digital recording equipment. It uses 1/4" width tape and comes with 7.5 IPS and 15 IPS speed. The digital counter works intermittently other than that everything works flawlessly.
What should I look for?
TIA
