I recently bought this Philips DAT880. I never heard of it, or seen it in Philips magazines. I am not sure if it has been on the market, here in Holland it has not been sold. I know Philips sold a DAT850, it was a JVC rebadge (JVC XDZ-505).
The seller told me this DAT880 is a prototype. Only 4 were built.
Now, i wonder if that is true. I am looking for information to see if what he says is true.
What i would like to know is, has JVC build a DAT recorder with a TDA1541 d/a converter? Because the DAT880 has a tda1541.
If JVC did not build a DAT with a tda1541, the DAT880 probably would not be a rebadged JVC.
Can anyone tell me if JVC built a DAT recorder with a tda1541 in it? And/or can anyone tell me more about the DAT880?
Thx! :

Forgot to say, the back says 'made in Japan' and it has a (regular) MZ-serialnumber (Marantz?)... 🙂
Just before Marantz made DCC decks, i can find a marantz DAT machine. The DT-80. But it's a bitstream machine and does not look like the philips.
Maybe Sony, as they also used the 1541

Hey Guido, bedankt. 🙂
Marantz also had a DT-84 (brochure on ebay: http://cgi.benl.ebay.be/Marantz-Cla...ategoryZ3280QQcmdZViewItem?_trksid=p1638.m118 ).
I have never seen the Marantz DAT, i would love to see a picture of it.
In the meanwhile i am sending emails to DAT repair-shops with the question if the recognize the inside of this Philips DAT880.

I saved the brochures from marantz from those years. Seems they actually are worth some bucks now 😉
Just have a look inside at the support chips for the transport and the controllers. Something there should give it away.
Looks like the style is like the cd880.
Sony?

Guido, could you please place a picture of that Marantz DAT recorder? Perhaps you can take a photo of the brochure or perhaps you can scan it?
Thx!! 🙂
Thx!! 🙂
I think it's a sony. At the bottom there are 3 sony chips, and -i think more important- Sony had dat decks with tda1541 d/a converters (like the dtc1000es)
The picture is quite dark. Google is easier 😀

does not look like it's a top of the line model.
Sony, guessed well. Looked too good inside to be a real prototype instead of a rebadge.

He tof! Great pics! Never seen that model before. I am searching for the Marantz dt-84 pics, maybe i can find those. 🙂
Does anyone know if Marantz made more DAT recorders besides the DT80 and DT84? Maybe a DT94?
And does anyone have photo's of the DT84? I cant find any...... 🙂

If you look at this Marantz DAT (see link above), it has the same display and sort of controlls like the DAT850, the improved JVC 505
Bye the way i'm new here.

True, but, if you look at several Sony or JVC dat recorders, you will notice that they all have similar displays and control positions. 😉
I knew it was een existing Philps/marantz line it has the same cover as the cd880J from Marantz witch is a marantz 84 line version Philips CD880.
Re: This is one pic of the DT-84
Hey Leo, Thx! I wonder which DAT transport was used in the DT84. I guess its a Sony, but i am not sure:

Does anyone know where i can find the service manual of the Marantz DT84 and/or Philips DAT880? 🙂
I found out the transport mechanisme used in the Philips DAT880 is the same transport mechanisme used in the A&D D-9000 / Akai AD-93.
See photos: http://www.niji.or.jp/home/k-nisi/d-9000.htm
Does anyone here know the A&D D-9000 / Akai AD93 dat recorders? Does anyone have a service manual of these recorders? 🙂
