Confusion Compounded
Subscriber Karl C. Thomas of State
College, Pa., wrote us some time ago
that he agreed with our TITH conclusion
on the Concertone 20 /zo: it's a
lot of tape recorder for the money.
However, he said, it would be only
fair to point out that half -track heads
are supplied as standard equipment on
the 20/2o, not the full -track heads as
on the higher priced BR-i model,
which we implied. We checked with
Berlant Associates about this and received
a reply from Harlan Thompson
which is quoted in part below:
"Our BR-1 machine is ordinarily
supplied with full -track erase and record
heads, and a half -track playback
head. This is to permit playing .. .
both single and dual -track tapes ... .
There is no appreciable difference [in
results) between this and the full -track
playback.
"For those who are skeptical about
this fact, we do supply, on special
order, a single -track playback head for
$to additional. We also put out the
BR -2 recorder with three half -track
heads at the same price as the BR -i.
"The standard Concertone 20/2o,
known as the TWR -2, comes with
three dual -track heads. The TWR -t
has single -track erase and record heads
and a dual -track playback head. It sells
for $25 more ... With a single -track
playback head [also, it sells for) $40
more than the standard TWR -2 ...."
Everything straight now?
