"Top 5" Weekly Voting Thread: REEL-TO-REEL PLAYERS (Week 5)

And we’re back! This time with something a little less talked about, but a true piece of analog delight. Here we will be hashing out, as a community, the ** Top 5 Reel-to-Reel Players** someone can buy in the following price points (1 for each price):

  • Budget: $0 - $100
  • Entry-Level: $100 - $500
  • Mid-Range: $500 - $1,000
  • High-End: $1,000 - $2,000
  • Sky’s the Limit: $2,000+

Beyond aesthetics, many of us, both inside and out, of the r/VintageAudio community have found that vintage gear offers the most bang for the buck, and the reason why threads in r/Vinyl, r/Audiophile and elsewhere all point to Vintage gear for first time buyers. After 7 days of voting, results will be turned into permanent features in the community sidebar as the community's official recommendations.

Note – If one category has significant support for more than one Speakers, we will include honorable mentions in the final listing.
