The best I ever worked with, by far, were Tomcats by Pacific 
Recorders. They were by far the most reliable (and also the most 
expensive), and the support was superb. The operators cleaned the 
heads, capstans and pinch rollers once per shift, and I benched them 
monthly (when they got a full alignment, a basic audio proof, and any 
replacement parts needed from our extensive stock of those parts).
