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! :
