Hiss becomes LESS of a problem at higher speeds, because you can operate the machine at a relatively higher level.
I believe on a good quality machine you don't need noise reduction at high speeds. Companies like Fostex and Tascam made some budget machines that put 16 tracks on 1/2 inch tape, or 8 tracks on 1/4, even 8 tracks on 1/8 inch! Then you do need noise reduction.
DBX (which Teac pushed quite hard) - being single banded - does not affect high frequencies, BUT on certain program types you can hear it 'breathing'.
