Thanks all for the various replies that came over the holidays. I had  
not thought to post a lot of information since it was probably  
tangential to the list :)

The primary aim is to go through several hundred old tape reels  
(including, I guess, many "home audio" recordings to save any  
interesting fragments for the future. So the odd (what's the  
translation) multi track format where you could double up the tape to  
save tape (I remember doing that in the 70s anyway with the family set  
we had at home whilst recording pop music).  Good output and  
reliability. The reason for the trolley is that the studio is quite  
full already and not a lot of space for a large bookshelf unit and the  
trolley would be good to move out as required into store rather than  
me doing even more back injuries and problems than before :)

Plus, since I am in Europe, I didn't feel it helpful asking for so  
detailed information in case models were US only (110v) or people  
would go to trouble of saying "try XYZ in Washington, DC" and the like  
as I am sure the freight would be expensive !

But thanks for the good tips so far :) Cheers, Darren
