Reel To Reel Connection Question

I am a new adopter of RtR technology. My first pre-recorded tape is a second generation copy Lyn Stanley Live at Bernies, recorded at 15ips, 2T. I can honestly say, after being a HiFi enthusiast for over 50 years, hands down the best recording I have ever heard. It really does sound like live music. Ever wonder why most high end equipment vendors now use RtR decks to demonstrate their equipment?

See this post for more information on RtR recordings: https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/anyone-buys-master-tape-dubs

Thanks everyone for your feedback; very helpful.  I have yet to receive the machine but looking forward to it.  Rtr  I have read is the best as to recordings so I’m definitely curious.

Please look elsewhere for counsel on this question
