Sony - SONY DTC-77ES - DAT - Cassette recorder-player

Very well maintained Sony DTC-77ES 4-head high-end DAT recorder with wooden side panels with a very nice remote control.
All functions work perfectly.
The condition can be seen in the pictures.
I highly recommend it to anyone who is familiar with the Sony ES series.
Playing old, uncertain-quality tapes can dirty or even damage the playback head, so I cannot take responsibility for that. I have made a video recording showing the flawless operation of the unit.
