Marantz PMD 661: Oral History and Digital Technology

[jkmtubed]

Small note. At about 2:11 the narrator indicates "an addition line output" which is in fact an additional line input. All the best.

Thanks for the review. Quite helpful.

Very nice videos, full of information. Can I ask you a question? Which one would you recommend between the PMD661 and a Tascam DR-100? I can't seem to find any information on their preamps. Which one would you say "sounds best"?

[ilkovsky]

@goldenedge I've heard the Tascam DR-100. Sounded flawless. And I've read some really bad reviews of the PMD661.

Well done, Dr. Boyd! Great review of the features and operation.
