Metaxas Roubillon Reel to Reel

From their website:

In horology, a tourbillon ( French: “whirlwind”) is an addition to the mechanics of a watch lever escapement to increase accuracy. It was developed around 1795 and patented by the French-Swiss watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet on June 26, 1801.

The Metaxas & Sins T-RX Analog Tape Reproducer is the first Tape Recorder to use the same concept to absolutely regulate the speed of the tape through the use of An ARM-CORTEX “controller”.

It accomplishes this by using an ARM-CORTEX “controller” which synchronizes 4 of the latest high-torque-low-speed.

The T-RX also combines the highest precision “milgauss” stainless steel mechanical parts mounted onto a chassis which is CNC’d from a solid block of aluminum.
 
That thing is Sooooo silly. Reading the specs, they aren't even that impressive for speed stability compared to your average Studer, Revox, Tascam, Otari or Ampex.
