Description
In 1973 TEAC converted their consumer quadraphonic tape recorders for use as home multitrack recorders. The result were the popular TEAC 2340 and 3340 models. Both were four-track machines that used ¼ inch tape. The 2340 ran at either 3¾ or 7½ inches per second and used seven inch reels while the 3340 ran at 7½ or 15 inches per second and used 10½ inch reels. They cost under U.S. $1,000.
Teac 2340 was purchased new and has been owned by original buyer. Everything appears to work , VU's light up, listened to playback and sound quality is very good.
Cabinet is in excellent condition as is the rest of the deck.
