Description: This is the 100-240V 50/60Hz multi-volt version
- The unit shown in the photos and demo video is the unit you are buying.
- The unit just underwent servicing, testing, and is ready to go with a clean bill of health.
- Audio playback on this unit is very nice. It is a pretty simple to use unit with smooth operation and quality playback that does a great job playing back my tapes that were recorded on other units and still sounding great.
- All controls, lights, switches, playback, record function, etc. are all running great. This model uses the very durable glass heads which are much more resistant to wear. The heads on the unit are in good condition and clean. Tape path was just cleaned, the capstan tire reconditioned and running perfectly. In summary, no issues to report.
- The cabinet was just refinished with a beautiful reel cherry veneer & lacquer finish. This is a great cosmetic improvement over the original simulated walnut vinyl wrap that originally came with these. This project was just completed so you will love the mint condition of this cabinet. I did not install the dust screen pegs that insert in the top, but they are included. In the event you purchase a dust cover you can easily install the pegs with a simply pilot hole and using you cover as the template.
- The unit is free from damage and heavy wear. Faceplates were removed, cleaned and polished as well as all of the knobs. There is very little wear to be seen, just a couple of small marks that are too faint to detect with the camera below the vu meters on the right-hand side. Overall, this unit is easily in collectible condition and with the restored cabinet make it a deserving candidate for you review is looking for this model.
- Although the unit is 4 channel it will play all of your 2track material, just the same. This is actually a pretty rare piece as most of the 630D’s were made in the 2 Ch. version. It was also the last Quad reel Akai made in this size.
- We will also be listing a two-channel version of the GX-630D coming up soon along with many other reel and audio equipment. If there is something you are looking for, please send a message.
Additional Information:
- If you missed it in the above section, please note the black TEA reel is not included. You will receive a pair of 10.5” aluminum reels that go with the boxes in the photos and are displayed in the photo set.
- Fear not, you can count on this beauty being packed by competent hands and proper materials to ensure its safe transit to you. I do not mess around when it comes to packaging these properly and I know full well what it feels like to receive an anticipated piece in the mail just to find damage due to careless packaging. I do purchase full insurance on packages I send with tracking and signature will be needed on delivery.
- Please review all photos, video, and send any questions prior to purchase.
