Additional Information
Affordable early-1980s single-speed, four-track stereo home recorder that reused the operating levers and clutches of the earlier B100. Single motor with two heads (combined erase, and combined record/playback). Built-in 3.5-watt, 4-ohm speaker amplifier plus a small 1.5-watt mono monitor speaker that mutes automatically when external speakers are connected. High- and low-impedance inputs allowed direct connection of instruments, record players, tuners, 8-bit home computers or other tape recorders via a 5-pin DIN connector.
