My Favorite "tape machine" is one of the Kleins like the 
TT-179 or it's siblings...    Tough, dependable, functional, 
the TT-179 has two built-in loops -- each with supply, 
switchboard, and provisions for including other machines 
(like a page printer) under it's "management"...

Ah...  not so easy to find, though they do show up from time 
to time...

Well - that's one big advantage of the stand-alone Klein 
tapes - easily fit on a small desktop - even a (sturdy) 
typewriter stand...  not very big - though comparatively 
heavy (they are VERY well built).

.02  worth - if that...
