Something like this:
I listen mainly to Q8’s at the moment as I still have yet to get my Tate Tetrasound recapped. I have found a shop to do it locally but have been too lazy to drive the 7 or 8 miles to get there. Anyways.......some of my Q8’s sound decent but others sound flat. The deck was recently serviced so it isn’t that. I have a few of these dynamic range expander things in storage and seem to remember they work surprisingly well, but don’t know if it would even make a difference for 8 tracks. Anyone try this or use these in your system? I have one of these pictured above and it did a good job for what it is. Plus they are small and not too obtrusive.
I also have a JVC 4 channel EQ with ‘SEA’ or whatever they call it which I believe is just a audio boost of some kind. It is a good equalizer but kinda big for my liking. Which of the two would be the better choice to improve, if possible, the audio from 40 plus year old eight track tapes?
