[QuadList] Question of the week

[Wayne Watson]

That list looks pretty good. I think your Ampex comment is pretty true but then I used to work for them so my vote is tainted.
I was also wondering about the AVR-1B?

I think this is the list.  But was there a B version of the AVR-1?

The B version of the ACR-25 had the digital TBC rather than the glass delay lines.

I would like to know if there were B versions of the 1001 or 1002.

Bill, your turn on this one.  The rest are complete as far as I know.

It shows how much more we care about the Ampex brand than that other one.  We know the Ampex brand a lot better and I would be that most of the machines still in existence and running are Ampex.
