The H-R99 is Pioneer's 8-track record/playback deck, which records and plays back any 8-track, 2-channel tape cartridge.
The electronically controlled motor lasts longer because it generates less heat, and it has a shielded capstan for trouble free tape feed. The vertical head shift mechanism assures proper tape head contact.
Other features include automatic recording level control, end of track signal indicator, illuminated track indicator and a function switch for endless playing or auto stop after 1 track or 4 tracks.
