I've been looking for a way to bring my cassettes out of retirement that will be cost effective but hopefully listenable.
I recently saw a revox B215S in a second hand store which I think I can get for around the equivalent of 100-150 GBP (I actually live in Switzerland). I understand they were well regarded back in the day but would a cheap new player out-perform it? If so any recommendations as to brands/model numbers?
If it is a reasonable route to go down any advice for me as to how I can test it in the shop to make sure it's going to work?
My tapes (there are several hundred are mixture of commercial releases but mostly mix tapes acquired over the years, mostly chrome, SAX, metal tapes).
Thanks for any advice
John
