[QuadList] Another Jeporady Question-Quads not made by Ampex orRCA

[bill.spencer at northstarstudios.tv]

I used to have a Shibaden catalog from the 70s that showed their quads
and they looked to be RCA clones if not rebadged RCA.

2" Quads:

 

Bosch              (Germany)

Visual/Allen    (Bosch transport and heads from Germany w/Visual/Allen
Electronics from US)

Shibaden                     (Japan)

TAMCO                      (Japanese partnership btw. Ampex and Toshiba
making Ampex designed machines in Japan)

 

1" Quad:

            Asaka (Japan) Company also known as Asaka/ShibaSoku

 

Sony, NHK made 2" Quad prototypes in Japan.

 

I suspect there are more to be found.  The hunt continues!  (We need
some Japanese QuadList members!)

We all know the Ampex and RCA machines.  A number of us have seen other
machines in use.  So the question of the day is.

 

What other manufactures built quad machine?  

 

The answer can not be a refurbished machine that was built on someone
else's platform.  I know of two of the manufactures.  I do not know a
third one but am aware of the machine.  There may be more.

 

Answers can not include prototypes.
