This deck has a new Yamaha head. This was an idea of mine as a way to try to improve on the lackluster at best sound quality the original head produces, and a way to try to help stop this model decks notorious problem with destroying tapes. It sounds amazing, and it features Dolby S Noise Reduction. Everything works fine. The deck has been tested, adjusted, tested, and tested again. The markings seen on the pinch roller are from the extensive testing this deck underwent. The Bias, playback level, record level, Dolby S record level, and type IV bias have all been adjusted and verified. With the Bias and Record Level fine tuning, a perfect copy will be easy to achieve. Audio sample available upon request. Sold AS-IS
Please Note... We work very hard to bring these units up to a quality that could surpass even it's factory brand new original sound quality. However, this is not a new deck. It's still an analog technology, it still suffers from unwanted noise, it still eats a tape from time to time. These are flaws of the format and not necessarily an indication of a faulty cassette deck. We test our cassette decks for several hours using a combination of very old, worn tapes, new old stock tapes, pre-recorded original tapes, and custom made tapes from our own new tape stock. Only when a deck can make it through a test cycle without any major issues, and without eating a tape, do we post them for sale. Despite all this, it will still eat a tape from time to time. We DO NOT guarantee your tapes will work.
Handling Time Note...
It is our policy that all Sony cassette decks undergo an additional, complete test before being shipped out. This is to make sure this deck you purchased will function correctly as Sony cassette decks from this era are notoriously unreliable. This is mandatory and only applies to Sony brand cassette decks. 90% of the time we ship these out within 1 day of purchase.
If you leave negative feedback without contacting us first, we will refuse to offer any assistance regarding this purchase.
