This modern mechanical jewel will soon arrive AE. The combination of this exotic source with whole suite of trinity must be a unique experience at Divin lab.

Congratulations!
Almost all open-reel tape decks in the market are refurbished ones.

Ballfinger's are exceptions!
They are designed from the ground up and built with the best current technologies.

Great expectations on them!

Wondering if anyone has any direct experience with these Ballfinger tape machines.  Curious if they are being produced or were ever released?  Information seems to be limited.  Thanks!

I sold 5 units in the past few years. Delivery time is very long due to covid disruption.  It does not emphasise the mid range according to my customers who also own vintage machines. The sound is transparent, linear and lively.

Hi Chris,
Is this MP1 a simpler Ballfinger model than even the MP-002P?
Thanks!

Piano Tuner

You corrected the model name. It is M002-P
