The A-170 is
the basic cassette machine. But it's basic only when compared to more advanced
Teac models. Our entire line is extremely sophisticated, offering quality and
features not generally found on less expensive equipment. Every Teac deck must
pass a rigid quality control check before leaving the factory, and reliability
is almost synonymous with the Teac name. Additional features make some of our
products more expensive. But none are more rugged or reliable than the A-170.
The Teac
tape transport
The A-170
features a new transport system utilizing many of the ultra-precise parts and
design innovations found in our more costly decks. Included among these are the
special Teac capstan driveshaft, ground to a tolerance of 1 micron or less. And
an all new DC Servo Controlled Motor, with amazing sspeed accuracy. These
transport features provide smooth precise tape motion, and wow and flutter is
kept to an insignificant 0,09%
High density
ferrite heads.
The A-170
features High Density Ferrite heads which are extremely hard and offer a
greatly extended life. Teac heads are specially designed to permit
distortion-free recording up through the highest audio frequencies.
Expanded
range level meters
The key to
good recordings is the proper setting of the input levels. The large, bright meters on thhe A-170 make this
easy. The meters are merked to +3 VU but needle range extends to +6 VU to
facilitate adjustment for very strong signals and to allow higher than normal
recording levels.
Built-in
Dolby NR.
The A-170
includes the same Dolby Noise Reduction circuitry found in our top-of-the-line
A-450. it reduces tape hiss and can
improve your Signal-to-Noise by as much as 10 dB over 5 kHz. You'll probably
use it all the time.
Other
important features
Two position
switches let you adjust Bias and EQ for either Ferric Oxide or Chromium Dioxide
tapes, for maximum performance from both.
The Mic/Line
switch allows you to select between "Live" recording from microphones
or recording from other audio sources, and cuts in a built-in pre-ampifier when microphones are used.
Built into
the A-170's transport system is an advanced Auto-Stop mechanism. Whenever the
end of the tape is reached, the transport automatically returns to the Stop
mode.
