For serious analogue enthusiasts, open-reel tape remains one of the most extraordinary ways to experience recorded music.
High-speed 15 ips tape offers outstanding dynamic capability, excellent transient response and a wonderfully direct connection with the original recording.
With minimal processing between the recording and playback chain, a properly produced reel-to-reel edition can reveal musical textures, ambience and subtle information that may be far less obvious on other formats.
This is why open-reel tape continues to occupy such a special position among audiophiles.
After decades in which magnetic tape technology was largely displaced by digital formats, reel-to-reel is once again being appreciated by collectors, mastering engineers and serious music lovers around the world.
For many enthusiasts, it remains the analogue sound source par excellence.
FEEL THE WARMTH!
A celebration of 75 years of Nagra.
A celebration of analogue recording.
A celebration of music reproduced with warmth, depth and realism.
Long Live Analog and Music On Audio Tape!
