FEATURES

Tough

and

Reliable

Construction

The

tape

construction

combines

a

Smmthick

front

panel

and

a

diecast

frame

for

the

outer

casing

to

protect

the

heavy

The

The

features

direct

capstan

drive.

Even

the

slightest

luctuations

in

the

speed

caused

by

external

factors

are

controlled

by

the

servoamplifier

and

so

the

motor

displays

excellent

load

bearing

charactoristies,

and.

it

can

also

withstand

fluctuations

in

voltage.

Finally,

the

DD,

system

reduces

‘wowfluttar

and

yields

a

speed

which

is

subjact

to

minimal

ageing.

For

the

ree!

drive,

the

tape

deck

uses

a

pair

of

6-pole

inner

motors

with

optimum

characteristics.

Their

low
