Reel to Reel Machine for 15 ips playback


Looking for recommendations on a reel to reel machine for 15 ips tape.  I'm new to reel to reel so mainly looking for reliability and ease of use.  Mainly concerned with playback no recording right now.  

Mara machine?

Refurbished Ampex or Studer?

Extremely limited availability of 15ips tapes. At hundreds of $$$ apiece why bother? I have three consumer- grade decks: Pioneer, Teac and a rare Sony tube deck. I collect 7 1/2 tapes from the major labels Typically $25-35 each. Variety is the spice of life!
