@dlespera hey man, i just got one of these off a job...i dont know anything about it and was wondering if you can help me? I record on 1/4 analog tape on a tascam 388...do you think this revox a77 is a good machine to master down to or should I get something else? when you say they were used in real studios, what were they used for? im trying to built an all analog home recording studio so im not sure wether to sell this revox or keep it

@m134mr It might be problem with speed switch, the speed control print board is probably ok. :-)

There's a motor control print beneath the power supply, that might need some revision.

I dunno I still own a revox a77 all silver model a little older than this one. Bought it used in 1969 it still works.

That's probably an MK-II.
Keep it running, standing still is the worse you can do for these machines.

Stijnkraft is full of shit.
These babies were the low cost Studers and hung in real good in real studios. Brakes got loud but still worked, counter belts died but the SOUND making parts lasted, and lasted, and lasted...
And I am NOT talking about EARLY models (before gen 3)nor about flea market finds (!) but about what they really did and will do if you get a good one...
TEACS never made it in "real" studios, TASCAM was never close to a STUDER...

Oh my how friendly you are.
There's no way an A77 will keep running without replacing a lot of stuff. And that's a pity. They're not as reliable nowadays as they were in the early days.
But Hey, I'm full of shit anyway.
