Additional Information
Domestic valve reel-to-reel recorder built around the restyled Truvox Mk 6 deck, forerunner of the later Series 80 transport. Offered in half-track mono or stereo head configurations, driven by three BTH motors. Features push-button transport control with combined mechanical and electrical braking, and a roughly 4-watt output amplifier feeding an internal 8x6 inch speaker.
