Hello all, I have a Revox B77 MKII. On the rear sticker it states 2
track NAB, however I do not have any NAB adaptors and the machine is
fitted with the normal spring loaded clips for reel attachment.

I don't understand why the machine is labelled as NAB, as I thought this
was a reversible option depending on adaptors fitted.

The machine is high speed (7 / 15)

Can anybody shed some light on this?

NAB refers to the recording equalisation. It should have switchable replay
eq - NAB or CCIR (IEC)

In the days of purchase tax, some A77 machines were sold with fixed NAB
adaptors with no PT - seems the tax people thought that meant pro use only.
