Technics RS-1700 By Alter Ego Appearance
Enrich For Life - Audio Precision Engineering: Alter Ego Appearance in response to “the rapidly decreasing availability of Technicians who perform this level of rebuild.” Alter Ego Appearance combines design with technical skills. The word custom would be an understatement as each machine is its new creation, none of the open reel tape decks will ever be identical.
The Technics RS-1700, which is the same precision "wonder" machine as the epochmaking RS-1500US, reveals the full potential of the "Isolated Loop" tape path by eliminating any loss of performance in the reverse direction. It really should be called the "two-way-forward" tape deck rather than just another auto-reverse deck. The incredible wow and flutter of 0,018% (15 ips) remains unchanged in both forward and reverse directions.
