HI Guys..Looking for a stereo reel to reel. I would prefer 1/2 inch But not sure I will be able to sell the Missus Jewellery to fund it....anyway Let me know what you have would want a working unit in good nick that parts a accessible for if needed, and good quality heads..Prefer a machine that runs up to 30ips..and 520Nwbm..Otari, revox, ampex, mci, studer whatever you have..let me know. ..For mixing / mastering to achieve vintage tones..not prestine audio..hence 1/4 inch ok i guess..thanks alot...Ps.I am on Gold coast thanks Brendan Anthony

I have a few Studer Revox PR99 units for sale. They were pulled out of global studios years ago but haven't been used since. They seem in pretty good nick. I also have a couple of B-77s but they are the lesser spec machine.
