The Tesla B115 has a solid reputation as a capable Czech four-track reel-to-reel deck, with two speeds, separate record/playback heads, and a built-in amplifier. At EUR 80, this is a strong bargain: it sits far below the EUR 463 25th-percentile figure from 71 comparable listings, and dramatically under the EUR 1,004 median.
The appeal is practical rather than exotic: it supports 18 cm reels, offers 9.5 and 19 cm/s operation, and can make very enjoyable recordings when properly set up. At this money, a working example is an easy entry into open-reel tape or a worthwhile restoration candidate. Before buying, confirm that both speeds, transport controls, recording, playback, amplifier, and DIN connections function; age-related mechanical work is possible, but the low asking price leaves considerable room for it.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Fidelity Research emerged from Tokyo in 1964, founded by Isamu Ikeda amid Japan's postwar audio boom. The company quickly established itself as a precision engineering powerhouse, focusing on analog playback components during the golden age of vinyl. Operating until around 1984, it embodied the meticulous craftsmanship that defined high-end Japanese hi-fi, with designs that prioritized sonic purity and mechanical innovation.
The brand specialized in moving-coil (MC) phono cartridges and tonearms, earning acclaim for models like the MC-202 cartridge and the iconic FR-64 and FR-66 series. These products featured advanced materials such as stainless steel and specialized alloys, delivering exceptional tracking, detail retrieval, and dynamics. While not venturing into amplifiers, speakers, or digital gear like DACs, Fidelity Research honed a narrow but masterful niche in turntable essentials.
Today, Fidelity Research holds vintage-collector status among discerning audiophiles, revered for its high-end analog prowess. Once priced at premiums like $495 for top tonearms, its gear commands cult following in the used market, prized for timeless transparency and build quality that rivals modern boutique offerings. For vinyl enthusiasts seeking uncompromised heritage, it remains a benchmark.
