We know the Tape Albums are less than 100 titles and we can not use this format for music listening but sometimes we prefer to have a Tape Machine in home. 
Tape Machine Summury : what make Tape Machines worse :- replacing original parts by non-original parts- repairing or any kind of services by non-trusted non-professional people- working more than 1000 hours studer experts are rare rare rare.  health of Mechanical Parts are more important than electronics in used Tape Machines.most of old tape machine output analog circuits were not very high end for playback, Tim modified Studer C37 for playback. new tape machines like ballfinger are not as good as old Studer in mechanical parts.

High Quality Tape Format for Playback in Audio System: 15ips(Speed) 2-track stereo 1/4" 10.5" = 269cm CCIR SM900
