Tape Project Albums - general / The Tape Project Tapes works in mysterious ways....
« on: June 26, 2016, 06:00:32 PM »
Hi People,
The Tape Project Tapes work in mysterious just like GOD's work. I just tried something new in Sydney Australia. I put my STUDER A-810 fully rebuild and tuned to The Tape Project needs and 2 albums from The Tape Project list (BlackJack David and Linda Ronstadt) on display on a reputable Hi-Fi shop from Sydney (Castle Hill). I want to see the impact it has on people....
Like an experiment. Your comments welcome. See the link if you like.

Hi Ki,
We all appreciate a lot your assistance and knowledge on STUDER/REVOX. I could not succeed without your help and thank you again for all your support.
All your points are very valid but what I wanted to add is the fact that most of the European manufacturers on that era used local made capacitors (could be a political reason... who knows). We all know that electrolytic capacitors like ELNA, NICHICON, PANASONIC last much longer but I never saw them used in STUDER or REVOX. Wonder why a company of that magnitude did not want to use the best capacitors in the world???

To all A810 owners
This happened to me too on the recapping process. Take good care on replacing the capacitors. It is very easy to damage the layer behind on push in of the capacitors, traces are very narrow. I felt like I've done a good job but for more than one month I've been confronted with the same problem SAFE only. Finally I managed to test all my boards in a friend machine and all worked perfect. One think left THE MAIN BOARD. I managed to obtain another board via e-bay, recapped with much more care and BINGO. All problems gone!!!!!

Hi people,
After a long and exhausting search I managed to get a TAPE PROJECT tape. I got the TP-002 Blackjack David, so I can say that still exist people which sells their TP tapes but hard to find them. What can I say....woooooow it was worth the wait. I am totally hooked in. I could not believed my ears that such sound can be captured on tape. Of course that my A-810 also helped!!!!
