[Vintage-Audio] Re Revox Mystery

[Sheldon Daitch]

Is there any possibility the B-77 was available with both
4 track and 2 track playback heads?  There were several
tape desks that had the capability of switching between
a real two track head assembly and a four track head assembly.
Don't know if the Revox B-77 was one that would do that.
