Please refer to the detailed photographs for their physical condition. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Exclusive Browner Sound Custom Digital Counter One of the distinguishing features of this A700 is its custom digital tape counter, professionally installed by Browner Sound in Miami, Florida. The digital display offers a clean, modern enhancement to the machine's original design and can be programmed to display a personalized secret message of your choice. The counter provides for reset (push and hold), tape speed selection (double-click), and secret message (push and hold for 5 seconds). Important information about the counter: The counter is calibrated for precise tape-position tracking during normal-speed playback and recording. This makes it particularly useful for monitoring tape position during recording sessions and regular playback. The custom display adds a unique touch while preserving the classic character of this exceptional tape machine. Please note that it is not intended to provide the same level of tracking accuracy during high-speed fast-forward and rewind operations. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Rare Original Accessories Included This A700 comes with several desirable accessories that are increasingly difficult to find with these machines: Original Revox A700 Remote Control - The original factory remote control is included.
