Description from the seller

A-2300SX – Stereo Reel-to-Reel Recorder (Vintage)

The TEAC A-2300SX is a reference stereo reel-to-reel recorder from 1970s Japanese production, designed with criteria of high mechanical stability and high-fidelity analog playback. Appreciated by audiophiles and collectors, it represents one of the most successful examples of TEAC’s construction philosophy in the consumer/semi-professional segment of the era.

The model uses a three-motor transport system, with precise tape tension control and separation of the recording, playback, and erase functions via dedicated heads. Mechanical construction is solid, with a rigid chassis and an internal layout designed to reduce vibrations and tracking instability.

Condition of the unit
This particular unit presents in excellent cosmetic condition, kept for a long time exclusively on static display (showcase) and used in an extremely limited way.

• Very well-preserved aesthetics, with no visible signs of wear
• Front panel, knobs and VU meters in overall excellent condition
• No apparent modifications or tampering
• Mechanically in order and functioning normally during tests

Functionality
The unit has been tested and is operational in its main functions:
- Play
- Fast Forward
- Rewind
- Recording

Important note
The device is supplied without a power cord, as it has been preserved exclusively as a display piece. For this reason the cord is not included in the original equipment.

Technical specifications (highlights)
Configuration: 4 tracks / 2 stereo channels
Transport system: 3 motors
Separate heads for REC / PLAY / ERASE
Tape speeds: 3¾ ips and 7½ ips
Compatible reels: up to 7"

Dimensions and weight
Width: 440 mm
Height: 392 mm
Depth: 210 mm
Weight: approximately 18 kg

Collector’s note
A TEAC reel-to-reel recorder of this series is highly prized among vintage audio collectors, thanks to the combination of mechanical reliability, warm analog sound, and the build quality typical of Japanese engineering of the era.

The reels that may be visible in the photographs are used solely for illustrative purposes and are not included in the sale.
