    Selling My RX505E, please DM me and make me an offer. Happy to swap with a mint condition high end portable dat recorder with everything complete and boxed.

    My RX505E which is being used as a source playing out an original 80's Madonna Ferro tape and it sounds brilliant, Mint condition and everything works. I just dont play it much anymore.

    Phone Mic
    Direct Source From Machine Output to Camera Input
    ZX9 copy (Which was the same quality as the RX505E Copy)
    Cassette, playlist and info below.

    Beautiful!!! I am afraid even to ask about the starting price... my LX-5 with $500 cash resto from Willi Hermann sounded Heavenly, but this is in a totally different league... Once I rebuild my burned home, this will be on my To Buy! list:)

    That's a great offer James Tervit, I don't have an elusive portable DAT yet, I'm promised two by my buddy in Japan but he has to upload hours of interviews, maybe I can get him to move a little quicker. You may want to PM member Oswaldo Martinez, he has been uploading a lot of great cassette music and showing the chain of recording which sometimes include DAT. He may have some very nice units for sale (or trade).

    Nakamichi RX-505 - in my eyes the better deck than the highly over-rated Dragon - great deck, good luck :thumbsup:

    Some of these are going for £1200.00, mine was overhauled by Bowers and Wilkins and is perfect running, its in VG condition with a few light scratches that can be easily repaired. Its a beautiful deck I just have too many of them. You would be surprised at how little difference there is on the LX-5 and RX505E Naks have a very similar sound, just ask @Oswaldo Martinez .



    I did this today, all my gear is packed away ready to move. Thanks for your interest.

    Thanks and I totally agree this thing rocks and I do agree also the Dragons are over-hyped.

    "Classic" cassette mechanism in LX-5/LX-3 is difficult to beat, and RX-505 has the same mechanism. But watching how RX-505 flips the cassette must be Fun!!! :)

    Yes, the RT-707 looks great with any racked system, it's got Ultraman's Approval. The big units are nice but Pioneer did something special with this one and if your lucky enough to have a Spec Rack, one of the most beautiful silver stereos of all time. I think James thinks the Oak Tree Vintage Photo is your stuff Radio Raheem.
