The V531 (3 head, dual capstan) is also a great unit. I cannot tell difference between source and tape on a decent type II. Are direct drives worth it?

Worth it, so you don't have to think about it, speed of the tape is always right. But, if you use some other deck without direct drive and you're satisfied, and there's no difference between tape source listening, you're on the horse !!! It's all good if it sounds good to you, but this one is more about tape speed, if something sounds wierd, it needs attention... Direct Drive is more advanced because less belts... But you can check the speed on not direct drive decks simply, if you have a original tape and original CD with a same track and you use your phone to mesrure the time of the same track, and it's the same, no worries. Otherwise, adjust the motor speed on your deck or change the belts so the track from CD is the same lenght with a track from the tape.

@@cheapoldhifi Right! I do have level and speed calibration tapes. They do quite a bit for aligning my decks, even using them for azimuth alignment. They're ok but not great as they were created with calibrated prosumer decks, not from an open reel to reel machine.
