Akai 1730D-SS reel-to-reel

4-channel / 2-channel Stereo Tape Deck

An entirely new world of sound has been created by Akai's electronics engineers who have developed a new and sophisticated line of 4-channel surround stereo equipment. Included in this line are the exciting 1730D-SS 4-channel/2-channel Stereo Tape Deck and 1730-SS 4-Channel/2-Channel Stereo Tape recorder.

With either system, you're completely surrounded in sound with four speakers, left and right in front, and left and right in the rear. This system gives you a real "sense of presence", the feeling of being exactly in the middle of a live performance. Both models are designed to be used for not only 4-channel stereo but also 2-channel stereo as well.

The 1730D-SS is perfectly matched with Akai's exclusive AA-6100 amplifier. this amplifier has 80 W music power for dynamic 4-channel stereo sound and accommodates both 4-channel and 2-channel stereo operation.

 


Akai's dependable 2-lever system complements the high grade parts and robust construction of this rugged 4-channel/2-channel stereo model

It is regular practice to employ mechanical control in one-motor tape decks.  Akai has long since employed this 2-lever system in our one-motor decks. When compared to an ordinary 1-lever system, because the Play/Rec and F.Fwd/Rew Levers are independent, the movable range of the levers are shorter, and operation is lighter. Also, because the F. Fwd/Rew Lever is separate, mis-operation is minimized. Further, because of the mechanical structure of this control system, other parts are not unfavourably influenced and mechanism endurance is extended.
