The GX 260D
means the machine is fitted with Akai's unique Glass and Crystal Ferrite head.
This head is completely unique to Akai. The core of the head is a "single crystal" gem set in pure
glass of terrific hardness. Because the gem set in pure glass of terrific
hardness. Because the gem is a single crystal, it has no composite particles
that can break off and damage he head. (Inn a way, it's rather similar to the
jewel action in a watch - except that Akai would be the only watch - maker to
use it.)
So, the head
remains wear-free for life. In fact, Akai guarantee it. If the GX head on your
Akai machine wears out in normal use during the lifetime of the machine, we
will repace it without charge.
And in the
meantime, the GX head gives you outstanding performance because the head and
the tape are kept in perfect contact at all times - even high frequency
distortion is very greatly reduced.
The GX 260D
has four heads - 2GX recording/ erase heads and 2 GX playback heads. It
features automatic or manual revers for both recording and playback.
It has 3
motors - one self-lubricating hysteresis synchronous capstan drive motor, two
eddy-current outer-rotor reel drive motors. The advantage of the centre capstan
drive motor is that it ensuress identical performance in both tape directions.
The GX 260D
offers you line output level control. It
lets you add echo effect to any recording. And, of course, it has all the
facilities for sound-on-sound, sound-with-sound, and microphaone/line mixing.
There's also
a yape/Source montor, a Tape Selector
Switch and Automatic shut-off.
