Sony SL-2710 Betamax Video Tape Recorder Player Silver (1980s)
Calling all Betaphiles! The Sony SL-2710 is a beautiful front-loading with a nifty observation window over the cassette compartment. It features Betahi-fi stereo recording and playback so you can listen to your betatapes with second-to-none audio. It has an incredibly easy-to-use programmable timer with the ability to record up to nine events over a period of three weeks. It also has a linear time-counter for accurate tape location and a fluorescent display of readouts for showing actual time, linear position time, timer functions, and errors. Built like a tank, the SL-2710 is a heavy, solid, and durable machine that proves why vintage is best.
