Panasonic SV-3800 DAT Recorder

UISED PANASONIC SV-3800 DAT RECORDER $300 or best offer

Based on the popular SV-3700, the SV-3800 incorporates technological refinements for enhanced sound quality and functionality.

It features new 20-bit resolution DACs, together with the same type of 1-bit, 64 times oversampling A-D converter employed in the SV-3700.

The result is wider dynamic range, lower noise, and greater linearity. In audible terms this means natural sound, true to the original, with minimum colouration.

And of course, the SV-3800 incorporates the highest quality, high tolerance components, resulting in low noise and exceptional reliability for which Panasonic is famous.
