----- I have to protest most emphatically. The AZX  c a n n o t  correct the 
frequency response loss caused by azimuth error, it can only align in time 
whatever stereo signal you retrieve with this loss. It is only a time 
alignment machine. When you align the tape heads you automatically get both
