We buy and sell reel to reel tapes and select audio gear

Reel Hifi buys and sells all formats of commercial release reel to reel tapes tapes. This includes  2-track, 4-track, Quad, Dual track mono and Full track mono running at 3 ¾, 7 ½, and 15 inches per second on 4-inch 5-inch 7-inch and 10 ½ inch reels. 

Our main focus is  1952 -1961 2-track mono/stereo classical and jazz tapes and 1970 to 1986 4-track classic rock. We also collect and sell rock classical and jazz albums that span all eras of pre-recorded commercial release tapes from 1949 – 1989.  And we  occasionally buy and sell Tape Project, Analogue Productions, and other 15 IPS 10-inch master tape copies from the past decade or so.

We are always interested in rare master tapes or studio tapes. Our passion though is the sound of NAB E.Q commercial reel tapes from the heyday of Classic Rock, Jazz and Classical. 

We play test and review every tape we sell. To do this we run seven reel to reel tape decks and have gotten to know these machines pretty well. We have 2 Studer A810s, 2 Studer A807s, 2 Pioneer RT 707s and an Otari BQ2. 

Enjoy the music and keep it Real Hifi
