NAB Adapters

The world's first high-end NAB Adapter-NAB Isolator for studio professional reel tape recorders. Isolate or decouple your NAB metal reel from the reel motor.

There are two sets of NAB Adapters contact springs to have minimum contact surfaces with a metal reel and reel motor table.

High-End NAB Adapters to use with standard Trident shaft. Special construction reduces vibrations & improve the stability of the metal reel spool. This NAB Adapters (ISOLATOR) compatible with Revox, Studer, TFK or similar studio professional reel to reel tape recorder decks.

One set is located underneath so there are only three points in contact with the reel motor table. The second set is located on the side of the ISOLATOR to have three-point contact with NAB metal reel spool. The main body ensures that true roundness can be achieved. The upper tripod part locker works as a locking system to prevent reel spool from falling down when reel tape recorder operates vertically.

"They improve the sound dramatically. More open, more lively, more real sound. Revox C-270 the improvement is very noticeable and I could not go back to the old hold-downs. A bit shocking actually." - Feedback by Jonathan Horwich
