    This 7 1/2 IPS Tape Sounds Amazing! Much, much better than the LP's I own (U.K., US & Reissues). Top sound & wide sound stage very open.

      This is a whole new level as far as the listening experience goes. This is wide open. This is no compression. This is the way this album was meant to be heard. Absolutely stunning. If you have the equipment, this reel is essential to it.

        Sounds fantastic. A very different experience than listening on vinyl. You should definitely get this.. but don't start buying Beatles reels until I have had a chance to complete my collection.

          A mint copy of this reel has jaw-dropping sound. If you have the gear to play it and love the album you have no idea how bad you need this.
