PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION, SEE PICS. For sale is an AKAI GX-4000D 4 track 2 channel stereo 7 inch Reel to Reel tape deck recorder. It is in very good condition albeit with some scuffs and marks as shown. It has been tested, serviced, calibrated, and the heads were cleaned and demagnetized for the best sound ever. The mic inputs were tested and they work as well as the other inputs. The pots and switches were sprayed and the metal parts were lubed as well. Both channels are clear and superb sounding as well. The belts and caps were checked and they’re good. All the functions work and the VU Meters light up and jump like they are supposed to. The sound when recording at 3 3/4 IPS is very clear and better and wider sounding than the Source recording from, depending on the type of tape used and better at 7 1/2 IPS (with use of speed sleeve capstan). The heads are also in very good shape which is obviously why the quality is awesome as well. I will include a blank reel and some tape to get you started! Please keep in mind a lot of work and testing was done to ensure this deck works properly so it will NOT be cheap! Here are the specifications. Track system: 4-track, 2-channel, stereo system. Heads: 1 x record, 1 x playback, 1 x erase. Motor : 1 x capstan. Reel size: up to 7 inch reel. Tape speeds: 7 1/2 and 3 3/4 ips. Wow and flutter: 0.08% (7 1/2 IPS). Frequency response: 40Hz to 24kHz (7 1/2 IPS). Signal to Noise Ratio: 60dB. PLEASE NOTE: I accept ALL reasonable offers… Please take into consideration that very similar or other comparable model decks are SKYROCKETING in price, including those listed in “for parts or not working” condition or are untested or partially tested when making an offer, adding this to your watch list, or your cart holding out for a price reduction. If this deck is not within your price range or budget, there are other ones out there! Please note all local pickups are cash only! This item will be packed with large bubble wrap, dense insulated foam on all sides and a new box so it arrives in one piece. After the time period expires, the sale becomes final. All decks are cleaned, adjusted, serviced, and rigorously tested before they are listed to ensure they work properly and are priced accordingly. I have attempted to describe, as accurately as possible the description of every tape deck, including the cosmetic issues and any other issues that I may find and take plenty of clear pictures so you see exactly what you get. DO NOT OPEN A RETURN REQUEST! Not only do I consider this an act of hostility over any issue that could just as easily be resolved just by communicating, it is a major disruption to my workflow and should only be a last resort for sellers who are unresponsive.
