[Vintage-Audio] Re: RCA B and Nashville studios

[W8DBF D.B. Fischer]

Yo Robert,

If you want some great audio tape that does a truly fantastic job of 
recording, I have some extra to sell.

It is good tape and not the junk that about sucks the heads right out of the 
tape drive like the Double Bubble chewing gum does to the fillings in your 
teeth!

Why buy a good tape deck and then use bargan basement audio tape on it? 
About as wise as putting cheap gas in your high performance sports car. Why 
waste your money? You kill the tape deck heads and restrict the audio 
response and ruin the sports cars engine and severely limit its quick 
response and whiplash acceleration! You only get out as much quality, as you 
are willing to put in!
