The premium versions of Barclay-Crocker open reel tapes are dubbed from the original 2-channel stereo master tapes at 4X speed - instead of the 28X speed as was commonly practiced then. Most popular noise reduction encoding systems used on Barclay-Crocker open reel tapes are Dolby B type noise reduction and dbx. Budget stand-alone Dolby B and dbx decoder boxes manufactured during the 1970s and 1980s were more often than not - not the last word when it comes to sound quality. And professional grade Dolby B and dbx gear used in most professional recording studios usually cost around 50,000 US dollars back then.
