Harmon/Kardon model 8+ pretty neat, pretty good
Just got this one in folks. Had a melted belt and lazy quad/stereo
output switching relay- tinkered and fixed it. It'a a play-only unit, no record function. It will play quads or stereo tapes, and has a quad playback head. Very nice deck. Built every bit as solid as a Wollensak or Akai, i.e., a solid machined aluminum tape head support ! The deck on switch is on the right side behind the capstan- different. Sound quality- right up there with the best of them, with rock solid tape speed a tad better than a Wollensak on wow/flutter. Motor is smaller than an Akai, but still a strong piece. I overpaid a bit for this puppy to satisfy my curiousity. It's definitely a keeper unless someone really anted up. Not many H-K decks around, they are relatively rare- or their owners keep them ! This one came from a former H-K service employee who had it a long time... |
