Hi Everyone,
For years I've been an Akai CR-80D-SS Fan. I have one fully restored and with new transistors, but someone that I know who sold quad equipment back in the 70"s tells me the Pioneer QH-44 Q8 player is a much better deck, at least concerning wow & flutter which I admit I hear in my Akai. Any coments about the Pioneer from first hand experience and how it compares to the Akai would be appreciated before I start looking for one . I always thought the Akai had the best fidelity.
