Reel to Reel Tape

Dear @orpheus10 : " The playback is better than the original.."""

well that’s what you like to think that just can’t happens no matter what because the LP signal must be " proccessed "/pass through something to your R2R and that pass though something only can degrades the LP signal. or explain why is not signal degradation is this is what you think. Maybe I'm missing something or it needs a wider explanation from your part.

Raul, in one word it's "bigger"; the signal is bigger on playback because the 2 track tape heads are bigger, that translates to "apparent" larger speakers, and more powerful and more forceful power amp.

The music has not been altered in any way shape form or fashion; it's just bigger, which means you can hear more detail.

The size of the heads make for a larger more forceful signal on playback.

In addition, my deck has all "Black Gate" electrolytic capacitors, plus new original transistors. No, that doesn't make it better, but enables precise duplication of the original signal.

Maybe, the link I provided will convey what I'm talking about.

The reason this can happen is if the audio is down when the recording is made and so there is no vibration affecting the turntable. The better the turntable isolation, the less this phenomena can occur.

Dear @orpheus10: Please let me know how you make the transfer of the LP recorded signal to your R2R machine. Thank's in advance.

@orpheus10 : I think that at least the LP information pass trhough a IC cable to that R2R, is that pass trough " something " is that IC cable and no matter what that signal is degraded and you, me or any one can't listen any improvement of quality sound in the R2R  reproduction. This is a fact and additional to it I already pointed out all the R2R disadvantages about quality.
