Introducing The New TP-1000 Tape Deck From Analog Audio Design

 Analog Audio Design's first product, the TP-1000 is wholly constructed from new components, utilizing technologies such as computer-aided design and advanced testing tools to augment tape transport and minimize distortion.

The all important heads are from AM Belgium, the same company that inherited the head technical specs directly from Studer / ReVox when they shut down. 

The TP-1000 stands out as a three-motor machine using DC motors, all uniquely coupled by a belt and a flywheel to a modern design. Why? To reducing the cogging and flutter commonly associated with DC motors.
