Little recorder with proper spring 1973 features :

• F&F head with a DC rec/play amp,
• Dolby noise-reduction,
• CrO2 tape selector,
• switchable limiter,
• auto-stop.


Cute looks, too and solid mechanics even if the specs lean toward the original use intended by Philips for the CC format, back in '63.

The 131SD was a TC-2050SD in Japan.
