It incorporates advanced technology inherited from TASCAM, featuring a rotary head type design and a high-performance 1-bit type AD/DA system. The recorder supports multiple sampling rates, including 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, and 48 kHz, allowing for versatility in recording and playback. One of its notable capabilities is the long play mode at 32 kHz, which enables continuous recording and playback for up to 4 hours using a 120-minute tape. The device features a shuttle dial for quick searches, allowing users to listen to sounds at speeds ranging from 1x to 16x. The model also includes a multifunction remote control and offers selectable automatic ID detection sensitivity levels across five different settings. Other features include independent L/R analog input level control, a large 17-segment peak meter, various counter displays, and a headphone port with level control. The Teac R 9's specifications highlight its high-quality sound performance, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 92 dB or more, dynamic range of 93 dB or more, and minimal total harmonic distortion. It also provides multiple input and output options, including RCA and coaxial connections. The unit is available in black and gold, and its original price was approximately 3,498 DM for the black version and 3,598 DM for the gold version.
