Revox A77 MK3 Problems

Hello

I have a Revox A77 MK3, sr: G170460, two tracks, with 7 1/2 and 15 ips speeds. I did not used it since some times.

I have a problem, when I turn it on, even wen I did not push any recording buttons, and without any input signal, the vu-meter are topping to the maximum and still topping to the maximum until I turn my Revox off.

Have you heard of the Revox A77 or Tascam MSR-16?

Im having the oportunity to purchase a Revox A77 tape deck machines at around $200 and a Tascam MSR-16 for $800. Both machines are in great shape. I would like to know if any of you guys own one and your experiences with them, how do they sound? reliability ? etc. I dont want a comparison on which one is better. i Know the Revox is a 2 track and the Tascam is 16. I would like your opinions.
