Yes, I really wanted this back in 1972, and my wife let me buy it!

Plays cassettes, 8-track and reel-to-reel.
Yeah, I still have it,  rubber belts need replacing.

    Brings back memories of my dad's old reel-to-reel. Judging by this pic, it looks like this has detachable speakers too, just like dad's did:)

    I loved working with the 4 track, reel to reel recorders too. Although the reel to reel 'wire recorders' had their charm as well.  :-)

    Mike Srok , it came with built in speakers, but plugs for external speakers or amp.

    Hey I have some master tapes of recordings in my garage that you could play. I certainly can't.

    Ours is celebrating its 45th birthday this year:-)  along with a couple of turntables, amplifiers and very large impractical speakers:-)  Just love them all to bits!

    That brings back memories- I had a similar vintage Akai, a 4000DS without the cassette.
