To preserve the music i have been recording all my reels to hard drives for many years. If a tape has an issue and may be still worth selling, the issue will be brought forward. Most are just fine and sound spectacular.
This way i get a great reproduction and can sell off tapes to the younger generation so they can appreciate the special nature of tape for music reproduction.
This batch is special as it contains a wide variety of ROCK AND ROLL from Jimi Hendrix to Joni Mitchell to Neil Young to Black Sabbath. Plus a few in line tapes which are a tough find,for the old time machine enthusiasts

Reels were not given much forethought to packaging. The volume was small compared to Lps. Record companies would switch gears and not worry about packaging. Many times they threw stickers on the cello to proclaim a new hit song, or in the case of reels, tout the increase in speed. Those stickers were discarded, so the tape is a faster IPS than stated on the box, or even the reel. Many tapes may say 3 3/4 but are packaged at 7.5. Companies used this as a selling point toward the mid seventies. And even though tape may sound fuller and better at 7.5ips, everything at 7.5 ips sounds spectacular, tapes at 3 3/4 can sound amazing. Especially compared to other formats.

Audiophiles are notorious for embracing dated technologies, but their latest move might leave some wondering if they’ve lost their marbles. Incredibly, the audio world is seeing the resurgence of a product that declined decades ago and practically disappeared from the market around the early 2000s: the reel-to-reel tape deck.
One question, however, has been resolved: tape or vinyl? Even the most dubious critics find no ambiguity here. The verdict: tape sounds better than vinyl. Period.
What makes tape such a smart choice? For starters, it has greater dynamic range than vinyl, with extraordinary sound at the frequency extremes: the treble and bass. Next, consider the amount of signal processing that each medium requires. Vinyl: a lot. Tape: very little. Signal processing is the enemy of hi-fidelity. The less studio voodoo the master tape is subjected to, the better.
It helps to understand how vinyl and tape albums are manufactured. To make a record, the Master Tape signal must be compressed to match the dynamic limits of vinyl. Some of the highs and lows are slashed in the bargain. All the other audio tricks needed to shoehorn a signal into those tiny grooves compromises the signal even more. Dubbing 1/4-inch tapes is a much simpler task. With no need to squeeze or tweak the original signal, it can be transferred from the Master Tape relatively unscathed.********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
