Which mechanical parts are interchangeable between the different models ranging from original DD, DC2 and up to DD33? Are there any quality...
The best option for me has been to chase for broken DD11 units in bad physical shape. I gave up on buying chips after receiving fake ones twice in...
Yes, this is my conclusion also. I think this tape was recorded on my previous deck and not calibrated properly. The other tapes I tried recorded...
Thanks @Valentin I have now adjusted and treble is much better, a slight "pumping" effect on Dolby C recordings is still there. What other...
Got my first Aiwa and was pleasantly surprised by the nice warm sound. Not too fond of the design yet but it’s growing on me. I did however find...

I mostly buy used Maxell XL II tapes when I see a lot that looks well taken care of. When (re) starting with tapes again I bought quite a lot of...

Many thanks @Valentin for your input, sorry for taking so long to respond. I will clean the board properly and see if that makes a difference....
@mybox80 The pause switch is working fine. The PB/Rec switch has been cleaned properly before but didn't really help. I have temporary hardwired...
Hi, I have previously fixed my D3 by the usual maintenance, changing center gear, lubrication and new belt for counter. Mechanically it seemed...
Yes it would have been nice with a professional label on the DC2 but I can understand why it's not there. I'm not sure what professional would...
I usually “only” bring two, DC2 and another one. My DC2 needs som attention so this time it was DD9 and 701C.

Almost 2 years ago I got a D6C in perfect cosmetic condition as a free addition to a purchase of two cassette decks. It was listed as broken...
