Tape Recorder - Reel to reel for sale

John from Hillsborough

AKAI model X-200D

Details: Condition: used
Description: I bought this about 18 months ago, and used it to digitise old family tapes. I did a few tapes, before the left channel stopped functioning. I think the problem is that the braided earth shielding has come disconnected. The only functions I used were PLAY, RWD, F FWD, and the tape speed setting. They all worked fine until the earth problem occurred. Other than that, I don’t know what functionality it has.

I had another recorder that I used to finish the job (see my listing for Sanyo MR-803 Tape Recorder)

From looking on the internet, it seems that it was made between 1971 to 1975.

Its speeds are: 1 7/8, 3 3/4, 7 1/2

One rubber foot missing.

Dimensions: W 365xH 350x D 230mm

For sale as is.

Price: $100

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
