I just received these from Autobot84. Thank You Aron

Love it!

I love those colors, someday I'll have to get a couple. Especially that blue one.

 

[THAFUZZ]

I'd trade a Silver one and a Gold Reel tape for a Blue one, in a heart beat.

I don't have any reel tapes.

I have to ask, do any of these tapes sound any good? I get that they're nice to look at and I even have one that came, still wrapped and included as a "bonus" from an eBay seller with one of my recent JVC-badged acquisitions but if they're not in the same league as SA and SA-X, both of which are still freely available at sensible, high street prices in multipacks, then where's the use?

(& no, don't get excited about that one I mentioned, it's an Eagle brand C15, I didn't ask that it be included ...)

if your a patient man you could remove the tape from the reels and replace it with better quality tape , i too find these to be less than great for recording on .

Now that has to be worth a try! A great idea. Hmm, I have an MA-90 somewhere that got broken in a fight. Transplant donor here it comes!

Great cassettes Adam. They will fit perfectly on some of the boomers.
For me boomer without a matching color reel inside is like car on 3 wheels olice:

Nothing wrong with a three wheeled car, they're compulsory in certain parts of the UK.....

But, as with the tapes and their actual medium being imported from something a little closer to decent sound quality, so the good bits can be used in a car with the more usual quantity of wheels such as these from my collection:

You know, that funny, because I own several of these reels but have not recorded on a single one. I only have them as BoomBox bling in My radios. When I do record, I unwrap a Maxell or TDK, etc high bias tape. The Reels are mainly for display purposes.

 

[bantytfv]

I have recorded on them - they are OK, nothing special sound wise. Great for bling though.

Ooooo, all the pretty colors!

Hey, I'd trade you all these for three of those!

TEAC sound better than ReelCleer

I agree
