Fostex A Series Model A-8 LR - Multi-Track 1/4" Reel to Reel Tape Recorder - 100V ** PRO SERVICED **

The Fostex Model A-8 is an 8 track reel-to-reel recorder and uses 1/4" tape. This little beauty was released in the 80's and was designed by Fostex as a simple and easy to use device for small studios or home recordings. Do not let its small size deceive you as it sure packs a big analogue punch!

Condition:

• This is a used item.

• This unit is in good condition for its age. It signs of wear from use and age like some marks, nicks and scratches. The plastic is cracked and chipped on one of the corners. The orange strip down the bottom has faded and there is some light surface oxidisation. There is nothing which detracts from the use, functions or sound of this awesome little unit. Please see photos. 

• This unit has had a major service. This included a deep clean of the tape mechanism, the heads were cleaned, a brand new belt was installed, and demagnetisation of the heads. The electronics were serviced, any faulty parts were replaced. The record and playback levels were calibrated.

• Please be aware this unit is 100V and draws 60W of power. This means it MUST be used with a step-down transformer, not a travel adaptor. If you are unsure about this please let us know. We have some great, compatible step-downs for sale HERE.

This sale is for the A-8 LR only. Nothing else is included in this sale.

Decent quality for the price
Color: Grey
Decent quality for the price. Other privacy screens were extremely out of my budget, but this looks and works just fine- I just needed something simple to place behind my couch to hide some clutter. It took me about a half hour to assemble, but it was easy enough. It might be due to my carpeting, but I don't trust that the screen would be stable enough to stand freely without falling. Thankfully my plan all along was to wedge the screen between the couch and a box of clutter anyway, so for me it works as l'd planned!

Overpriced but effective.
Color: Cream
I happened to get lucky and get a warehouse deal at an additional 30% discount. Even at $25, it feels a little overpriced. But it was easy to assemble and serves its purpose. If you line the Velcro up exactly, the panels sag, if you stretch past even, but where it still grips, they look pretty ok. It is very light and does fold very compact for easy storage.

Great price for a great product
Color: Coal Black
Excellent quality and great price to boot. Easy to assemble and folds up easily to be stored. We are using it as a privacy screen when we have company that needs to sleep on the couch and also to block off a hallway leading to a guest suite. It looks great and is as described in the ad

No.
Color: Coal Black, Color: Coal Black
This was horribly made and a nightmare to put together. You have to basically bend the bars to get the coverings attached. The sizes don't match. The stickers that label the parts are impossible to remove and if you do get them off theres a lot of residue left behind. On top of that once it was put together I noticed theres a big dirty foot print on it which is definitely not mine.

You have to add weight to it
Color: Coal Black
It does its job and it was easy to put together but it's a little on the flimsy side and it will easily be knocked down. So you're going to have to figure out a way to make the legs heavier? I used cinder blocks, single cinder blocks and it works just fine. Just know that it will knock over super easy
