We are proud to now offer custom black “Spec Noir Edition" Pioneer RT-707's! These decks have been fully tested and restored to factory spec and then completely murdered.

Our custom blacked-out Pioneer RT-707's aren't just a reel-to-reel tape deck; they're a statement piece that screams sleek sophistication while delivering that rich, warm analog sound we crave. Their noir aesthetic elevates them from a classic piece of audio gear to a modern icon, proving that style and substance can coexist beautifully in the world of high-end audio.

Black metal reels not included but available at additional cost. Custom colors and RT-909's are also available.

Every deck is serviced, and if deemed necessary, original parts may be replaced / renewed with premium parts superior to the originals. This may include heads, belts, tires, capacitors and more. Motors and spindles are checked and replaced / rebuilt if required.
The NOIR edition deck is achieved by cleaning, stripping, re-brushing, professionally anodizing (NOT painting) and the graphics are etched via an aerospace-grade laser (NOT screen-printing).
Knobs, rollers and switches receive a unique black coating and are then baked for durability and beautiful red notches are added to some controls.
Prior to delivery, units undergo a full function test and alignment to ensure optimal performance.
The result is a vintage machine that looks like-new but retains its vintage brushed aluminum finish.

The "SPEC NOIR" Edition Pioneer RT-707 has been released by a group of passionate restoration experts and collectors of vintage Pioneer electronics dedicated to the preservation and restoration of what we believe are Masterpieces. The RT-707 was originally intended to be a consumer reel-to-reel deck in the 80's, though many of these decks made their way into studios and radio stations due to their durability and ease of use. They have made it their mission to utilize aerospace grade machinery and a nine-stage process to enhance elegance and breathe life into these machines to refresh them to hopefully last another 40 years!
