Be careful about POV

Some recent edits have inserted phrases such as "...was one of the greatest Reel To Reel Tape Recorders ever built" This is simply not acceptable for Wikipedia. Please read the Neutral Point of View rules carefully. Good info overall, and thanks for your contributions. Just a minor nit. -Harmil 16:00, 26 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thats quite ok. Im new to this whole thing and i understand where you are coming from. I'll be careful with the POV -Moose The Mooche 19:00, 27 December 2005

I'm not going to claim I made the article higher than a B-Class, but I definitely cleaned up the flow, punctuation and grammar quite a bit. If someone else will follow up and catch things I missed maybe we can get this one A-Class with more expansion on the history, distribution system of the company, some more pictures perhaps, more more more. --205.162.51.137 06:53, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If the original contributor is interested in my critique of his/her grammar, and I hope you don't take any offense because none is intended: this article's largest issues were casual tone, passive voice and a tendency toward narrative flow. What I mean by that, mostly, is that the article sounded like oral storytelling. --205.162.51.137 06:53, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The article states that the most famous Akai reel to reel decks were the GX-747, GX-77. Another famous Akai open reel deck was the 4000 series. These were manufactured between 1969 & 1984. There were a few variations & updates to this model but the basic desighn remained the same through out it's prodution run. This deck was very popular becouse it combined a excelent reliability, reasonable performance & a comprehensive array of features at a relativly modest price. I just thought they were worth a mention because I have seen more of these decks about than any of the other Akai machine.
