Hawk HE-2250 5-Head/2-Channel Echo Unit
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.
Cosmetic condition of the current machine is very clean. Serviced and tested - fully working and guaranteed.
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.
