Hawk HE 2250 Professional 5-Head 2-Channel Echo Unit - Perfect for Karaoke, Recording Studios & Live Performances

This is quite simply a stunning 70s stereo tape echo. This is not just another Space Echo with some slightly tweaked features, but a genuine stereo machine with some unique abilities.

We're big fans of much of the output from the Japanese producers of the Hawk (aka Mirano) gear but with this HE-2250 they definitely did something special. The only issue is that we can't easily grab a quick demo that really shows what it can do because Instagram videos (where we put up our quick try-outs of new gear) are in mono. However, we have put one below to give some idea, and we've recorded some stereo audio-only demos it and if you want to hear them then get in touch.

We'll add some more information about this machine soon - the "mirage" and "reverse" functions could do with some explanation. But this is a very well designed and built, and superb-sounding, piece of kit.

And not only that but it has the looks to match and the condition is superb - pretty remarkable for a unit from the 70s.

It has had a full service, followed by some thorough testing from Tony (before we had to prise him away from it).

Condition is excellent. Had just a few small scuffs and dings that show the age, plus yellowing of the push buttons.
