E205 SONY Sony DAT DTC 1500ES Discontinued Rare Item SONY DTC-1500ES Original price: ¥300,000 (around 1991) Power on confirmed The following is a quote: A reference model DAT deck created by Sony, incorporating the technologies available at the time, to bring out the full potential of DAT. Equipped with SCMS (Serial Copy Management System), it allows for digital-to-digital recording from CD players, which was previously impossible, for only one generation. With an SCMS-compatible DAT deck, you can make a digital-to-digital recording using a CD as the master, but you cannot make a digital-to-digital recording using the recorded tape as the master. Also, in the case of a tape recorded with analog input, you can make a one-generation digital-to-digital recording using that tape as the master, but you cannot make a second-generation digital-to-digital recording using this tape as the master. In the case of satellite broadcasting, it is also possible to create a second-generation tape digitally based on a tape that has digitally recorded digital audio output. In any case, repeated recording is possible only with analog input/output. It employs a 4-head configuration head drum. This is in addition to the conventional set of 2 heads for recording/playback, with a separate set of 2 heads dedicated to monitoring, allowing for simultaneous monitoring during recording, similar to 3-head tape decks and cassette decks. The source sound and tape sound can be switched with one touch using the Rec Monitor switch, and you can switch and listen at any time during recording.
