Time for a bit of a niche hifi item…
One of these.

Condition is not mint with some scratches but that is how it came from X-Electrical in Hammersmith when I got it about 20 years ago. The DAC is a little technical sounding, probably related to the D-T1 but the ADC (standard rate only, this wasn’t one of the later 96kHz machines) is very good though. It can act as a stand alone DAC/ADC as well if needed which was how I used it for digitising a bunch of cassettes last.
I will also include 5 tapes which have stuff on them like radio off air grabs currently but which can obviously be wiped and used.
Other possible use: playing your copy of this as intended…

Pricing is a bit of a pluck out of the air, they don’t seem to come up much and ebay pricing for DAT recorders seems to bounce all over the place so £275 to someone reasonably well known on here?
Don’t have any packaging so it would need to be collection from Leamington Spa or taxi.
