Romy,
About 6 mo's ago I purchased a Teac X7R becuse the man who ran the head mfg facility in Japan is still making heads and has new pinch rollers for the machines too. This is the X7R,X10R and X100 and X2000 series. The R stands for auto reverse so do not look at the X7 or X10 non reverse models. The reasons for choosing these machines, other than new heads and pinch rollers, is their use of four fixed heads for record and playback rather than the less optimal solenoid driven head movement to provide bidirectional play back. Plus you can still obtain the wonderful Panasonic 966 Dolby B outboard processor and be able to explore the near est thing to master tape playback available, in Barclay Crocker, DG and other releases. And there are some extremely reliable tape sellers on ebay that I can give you the names of if you are interested.
