Humble Pie- ‘On To Victory’ 8-Track Tape. Tested, Plays.
Pulls smoothly and sounded fine on my trusty Realistic
TR-169 test deck, but the pads are soft/spongy and replacement is recommended
for serious audiophile listening. Be aware that sub-par pads could result in
degraded sound quality on a higher-end machine. This is an easy fix—but not for
MY arthritic fingers! This deficiency has been priced in.
Check out my other 8-tracks! I’m happy to combine shipping.
If you can’t figure out eBay’s combined shipping feature, feel free to order
individually. I’ll be happy to send you everything in one box, then promptly
refund and excess shipping. Free shipping on orders over $40
All tapes are sold strictly as collector’s items with NO
guarantee concerning their operating condition-- unless picked up in person.
8-tracks were never intended to travel through the mail; rough handling by USPS
occasionally results in the tape un-spooling, something over which I have no
control. I generally do not “splice test” them. So in rare cases, a tape might
separate when it hits the splice and foil strip. Break out the screwdriver and
the Scotch Tape!
