I have run 100's of reels of RMGI SM900 1/2" and 1/4 " here without a single problem.

This tells me that perhaps environmental conditions or specific tape recorder issues are cropping up.

What about the merchants who keep stock of RMGI in hot warehouses and who are selling you a 3 or 4 year old case? When we buy from our dealer, we receive the tape directly from the RMGI warehouse in Indiana. So we know and we verify that it is fresh and a current batch.

I think it is unfair to paint all RMGI product as shedding as some have on this thread. I discount these reports because of some bias. (sic) It has never been my experience.

I have maximum confidence in the SM900 product for sound and for running well.
