FOSTEX X-26 Vintage 4 Track Analog Cassette Tape Recorder Bundle. Includes four track, box, manual, new adapter and cassette. I was able to record on to all 4 tracks and hear clearly out of the headphone jack. Have not tested the various RCA outs. Noticed some quality issues when toggling Line + Aux/Aux /Line + Sub Mix while listening through headphones. Some dirty pods, could use a clean. Other than that, this is an awesome late 80’s device for the lo-fi recordist! I was very pleased with the quality of my tester tape. Let me know if you have questions.

Does not include power supply. I plugged red and white RCAs into it and ran a CD player through it and through headphones it sounds excellent. Missing one knob for the pitch. The cassette buttons and functions work perfectly, it plays well. It started sounding like it was playing cuts in reverse at one point but playing with switches corrected it.
