Just decided to hook up a pristine Revox B77 I got. I also picked up
some open-reel prerecorded tapes and when I play them, the sound is
really dull. I first thought it was an azimuth problem, but I tried a
couple of different prerecorded tapes, one of which was never played
and the result was the same; really dead, dull sound. I seem to recall
that there were a couple of eq systems used in the open-reel days (NAB
and another whose name I can't remember) Am I a 'victum' of
mis-matched eq's? And if so, any URL's for a playback filter
schematic? I don't really want to wade into the Revox eq
settings.......
