Tandberg 3000a series


Hello I recently came across a Tandberg 3000a stereo system consisting of the 3001a, 3006a, 3008a, 3014a. Everything is in very clean working condition. What are your opinions on this system as a whole? I hear good things about the tape deck and tuner

The 3001A is a great tuner, but once the presets start to go, and they will, expect a large bill for a service overhaul.
I am sure the Norwegians that built all Tandeberg products in Norway will be very pleased to hear that their products have "A nice Danish look" :-D :-D :-D

I worked at a stereo store in 1975-6 that sold Tandberg, Revox, and Nakamichi (as well as Teac), and I owned a Tandberg reel-to-reel. To these ears, the Tandberg reel-to-reels sounded better than the Revox A-77 and their 330 cassette deck trounced the Nakamichi 1000 and 700.

The Tandberg R2Rs had a s/n ratio of 64 dB, where the Teac, Sony, and Pioneers of the day were at 55-58 dB. Even the much more expensive Revox with Dolby was only 2 dB better than the Tandberg. I never got around to getting one of their cassette decks but we weren't paid much back then.
