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 keep meaning to add some more information about these machines - the "mirage" and "reverse" functions could do with some explanation, but we never seem to have them long enough. 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 excellent - pretty remarkable for a unit from the 70s.
VAT: Sales in UK/EU the price will include VAT. VAT-free sales are possible to businesses and individuals in the EU (outside the UK) with a valid VAT Number - please get in touch if you wish to buy this way.
VOLTAGE INFORMATION:
- It is a 100v Japanese model and needs to be run at 100v only
- A step-down transformer is required for use on North American or European supplies.
- We do not recommend using cheap generic Chinese mains transformers.
- For 220/240v mains we can supply a high quality UK-made unit if required.
- For use on 120v supplies we recommend a converter like this.

"Excellent equipment, wonderful service. I fully recommend Soundgas to anyone in the vintage gear market and I will definitely be a return customer. The gear itself was exactly as advertised and in great condition."
DAVID WRENCH
“I’ve bought a number of items from Soundgas recently, and have been really impressed with their service. It takes the stress out of buying vintage gear to know it’s been properly (and faithfully) serviced or restored. Their after-sales service has also been exemplary. Highly recommended.”
TOM JOHNSTON
Fantastic. From initial contact to the product landing at my door the service provided was outstanding. Safe and secure shipping, quality serviced product.

"Finally, a company that tracks down all those brilliant curiosities that bring so much character and personality to a studio."
JOSH LLOYD-WATSON & TOM MCFARLAND - JUNGLE
“Imagine the perfect eBay.... with everything you never knew you wanted… and you can rest assured that your vintage and rare wobbly sound device will turn up on time and in one piece and possibly in even better condition that when it left the workshop. Soundgas - literally amazing."
