Technics RS-TR210 Dual Cassette Deck – Dolby B/C, Auto-Reverse

A Technics double cassette deck, made in Japan, with Dolby B and C noise reduction, auto-reverse on the recording deck and high-speed dubbing. It has been serviced on our bench and is in very good condition.

What it is

The RS-TR210 is a straightforward, well-built Technics twin deck: one deck for playback, one for recording and playback, and everything you need to copy, record and play tapes without fuss.

Deck 2 records and plays, and its auto-reverse plays both sides of a tape in turn, once or continuously. Deck 1 plays back, with series play to run straight on from deck 1 to deck 2 for long, uninterrupted listening. Both decks select the tape type automatically, and the deck handles normal, chrome and metal tapes.

Dolby B and C are both on board. Dolby C gives roughly twice the noise reduction of Dolby B, which is the difference between tape hiss you stop noticing and tape hiss you never hear.

Copying is easy. Synchro start begins a dub on both decks at once, at normal or double speed, and auto record mute leaves a clean gap between songs. The level meters are bright digital peak meters, and a counter keeps track of where you are on the tape.

It connects to any amplifier or receiver through a pair of RCA cables, to a tape loop or a spare input. Our own Gold Series RCA Stereo Interconnect is a shielded, gold-plated pair made for the job. On the back there is an unswitched AC outlet for one more component, and jacks for Technics’ own system remote and synchro editing. The power cord is detachable and included.
