I mean reel tape kills vinyl and cassette. It surpasses or equals digital in high $$ situations.

*its mostly about the mastering

Yes, its clunky huge and expensive and has a limited catalog. But once you've heard one you'll want more.

    Oh, no doubt. Reel to reel is the ultimate analog media.

    I love showing it to people who havent heard great audio.

    But yeah, its so expensive. The best part tho is unlike records, tapes are very robust if you keep them in normal temperatures and away from magnets. No surface noise, and most tapes the hiss is hardly noticeable especially on anything 15 IPS.

    The good part about the limited catalog is you're going to always get super high quality from it because its so limited and expensive to do
