ct0517, if I get the math right, using a 10.5’ reel @ 2500’ per reel at 15ips, you can record ~33 minutes of content on each side. Of course twice as much using a more typical 7.5ips machines like the one I have. I don’t think economy is a major driver in this hobby😁
Reel to reel deck directly to power amp ?
Thinking about my totally new future system. The main source is going to be reel to reel deck, most likely Otari two track, possibly Studer A810. I will keep the turntable and run the phono thru deck. So I will need only one input, decks have volume control and preamp. I don't think I will need separate preamp. Do you ?
Power amps could be both transistor and tube, maybe even hybrids - Lamm, as an example, would very much depend on speakers. Don't know what speakers, could be as different as Harbeth and Kharma.
