From one of the best-known names in recording and playback, the Revox B710 was the first cassette deck produced by the open-reel stalwart. This one could almost be considered "new old stock" - take a look at the photos, particularly the close-up of the heads. You'll both honor and preserve your collection with such a pristine deck.

- Liner Notes
The Revox B710 MkII is a superlative machine by any standard that can be used to judge a cassette deck. The only nit we can pick about its design is the absence of a switched a.c. outlet. The accurate and convenient built-in clock/timer worked well, but it cannot switch on an associated tuner or receiver for unattended recording. As it is now designed only the fortunate owner of a Revox receiver can fully utilize this capability of the recorder.
