The Akai GX-266 D is a reel-to-reel tape deck manufactured by Akai in the 1970s. It features two speeds (3¾ ips and 7½ ips) and has three motors for precise tape movement. The GX-266 D has a built-in automatic tape lifter, which raises and lowers the tape heads automatically to prevent wear on the tape. It also has a three-head configuration, allowing for easy monitoring of the recorded audio. The deck has inputs and outputs for connecting to external audio equipment.
