Description: For your consideration: For sale is a rare find vintage piece Akai X-360D reel to reel open deck in aesthetically gorgeous state. The unit is fully operational for the most part and recently conducted a considerable amount of refurbishing session. Including but not limited to, replaced VU lamp, detailed clean, hand buffed, replenished and deoxit some pertinent components and mechanical parts including knobs, dials and switches Too inundated with so much projects on hand and I may not be able to execute further testing. However, on last test, all functions respond as normal but due to prolonged inactivity... 1. The playback output produce an audible low frequency humming. Recording is normal and sounds amazing!2. The lowest speed setting may cause overheating to an unknown component (Never use this speed or at your own discretion.) High and highest speeds are fine. On that note, I am selling as described and AS IS condition and be prepared to explore and tackle the necessary challenge of figuring out proper implementation to bring this formidable machine to manufacturer's specs and operational order. This is as pure analog as it can get! Ideal for incurable collector of all things analog and everything unique, one of kind and rare. And for those who seek for an absolutely unmatched, esoteric texture of warm analog sound that the ubiquitous ones and zeros could never deliver. The deck is heavy. Shipping and handling may vary on location. Local collection available.
