I can totally agree with your sentiments and I guess were at that turning point
that valves became transistor, analogue became digital and vinyl became a free download..

I have found a supplier of Zonal 840 tape and someone to calibrate the Revox near where i live in Sussex
so not all doom and gloom for example yesterday I found a nice supply of 2 micron foil in some tungston starter caps, so can now repair my ribbon mic...

I have found a dealer in Zonal tape ? I am not sure of this brand , any ideas on
the quality and which one would be the nearest equivalent to the maxell or 407
..... Does it really make that much of a difference if i was to use Ampex 456

Hi !  Just joined this forum and am already impressed, I was wondering if
there was a recommendation for a replacement tape for Quantegy 407
which is the equivelent of the Maxell tape which my Revox is biased for.
I live in the Uk but cant seem to locate any tape...What are my options... ?
I would like to find a supplier here at home....
