Great machine. Spent a good 15 years using several A810's and A80's at LBC in the 80's and 90's and stil hold great affection for them. Guess nifty software has rather made them redundant these days.
Thats a good question, on some reports I have seen, the Sony APR-5000/3 is one of the best stereo machines which a nice flat responce, many people like the Studer A80's, me, I hope that the Studer A820 (WTB) is the best but I have had many people say the 3M machine is the best and the most prone to break down and wear out the tapes first due to the tape loop design, multi track? no idea.
Many thanks for posting these wonderful videos on your collection. Great stuff ! I am looking to purchase a Studer this year and these videos are just what I need to get the inside scoop. Thank you again.
Yes the shipping charges would be sky high. It is a beautiful deck.
Let me ask you : which is your favorite, the A810 or the A80 ? I have been doing some reading on the ML-5 which was the one gone over by Mark Levinson.
Well, if you happen to have an Otari MX5050, I wouldn't mind seeing what you've got to say about that particular machine. I've got one that I use very frequently. ;)
Well, show us that one then. :) An Otari M90 would be awesome to see too. There are a couple short vids on youtube, but nothing as in-depth as you'd do.
Well the MX-55 shows a short time in one of my clips of some of the recorders I have, its packed away until after Christmas but I will do a video of it next year.

If C37 is the best valve recorder, is this the best analogue solid-state recorder?

Sadly, no, I had one with a overhead bridge like my A810 but I sold it some time ago, the only Otari I have is the MX-55
