Here's a photo I took this morning of this still-working TEAC. The tapes from almost 40 years ago are in pretty bad condition, there's particle drifting which causes noise, and that can be negated a little by taking a sample of the pure noise and then using something like Sony Sound Forge to set up negative waves to cancel (or try to) the hiss and noise.
My nephew, who was 11 when he first saw it in our living room thought is was very cool, and asked what it did. He thought he'd seen one on a science fiction /TV rerun and that it might be part of a computer.
Okay, I'd like to steer back on topic. Because the brick texture proved to be useful, here's a 5-pack of different brick tiles, some for walls, some for bathroom floors, attached.
My Best,
Gary
