Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

THIS PRODUCT IS NO LONGER IN PRODUCTION.

The Inovonics 387 is high performance reproduce-only electronics for magnetic tape and film playback applications.

A rack-mount chassis with power supply accommodates from one to four plug-in amplifier modules, each a complete and independent reproduce channel.

Features


  • Very low noise design combines best aspects of discrete and integrated circuitry.

  • Three separate sets of high resolution, multiturn Level and EQ adjustments.

  • Three-point EQ includes gap loss compensation; accommodates all tape and film curves. Remote EQ selection provision.
