I’ll never forget when the late, fondly missed Tim de Parravicini called the mighty Studer C37 “a poser reel to reel” suggesting to listen to, instead, to a Nakamichi 1000 premium cassette for better specs and frequency response 🥳
Well, TdP’s provoking wittiness wasn’t totally wrong: his goal was keeping away wealthy newbies from such a music industry icon.
Such a machine deserves best use at the service of good music and musicians… not just spinning a CD dub a couple of times per year (you know: shit happens 😱😏🥳😱).
A trusty, skilled and handy technician is also mandatory to keep this machine up to specs.
Everything considered, my C37 is a wonderful sounding reel to reel machine and I’ll make it the (new) foundation for my humble vintage home-studio.
Thanking Arnaldo, Jürg, Walter and Marco.
