Crown Four Track Solid State ¼ Track Stereo SX-724, 700 Series 

Magnetic Tape Equipment 2 channel, 4 track,  record/play

Serial Number: S7903

Model: SX724

Description:

This is a vintage Crown SX-724 reel-to-reel ¼” four-track, rack-mounted tape recorder.  (In anticipation of rack mounting, they were manufactured with an open back configuration). Crowns were American-made and were renowned for their sound quality and first-rate construction.  In this case, the recorder was paired with a McIntosh MX110 tuner and a McIntosh MC 240 amplifier, a configuration that was often used by professional musicians and recording studios in the 1960’s. The Crown 700 series included a 2-track model, the SX-722, and the SX-724 which could record and play 4 tracks.

 

The unit was purchased by a family member who was a professional singer who made recordings of his songs for clients and friends. It was last played in the 1970’s and remained in the cabinet in the living room until it was removed about 10 months ago to be sent to R&B Electronics of Redwood City CA, for a complete evaluation and tune-up in anticipation of sale.   All components were examined and tested and the unit was found to be in very good condition; other than cleaning, little was required.  A copy of the R&B receipt is available. The purchase also includes the original User’s Manual for the device.

 

R&B Electronics of Redwood City, CA, completed a complete overhaul and check out of all levels for play and record in October 2019. Receipt available.

Belt set for all 3 speeds. Inputs for 4 microphones. Power Cord.
