Hi all, How do you all go about digitizing your tapes? I have a few I'd like to backup and I'm aware I could use any simple cassette corder and...
Very true, I've seen a lot of these reviews too. I feel like Guardians of the Galaxy, Stranger Things and other mainstream projects have widened...
This does seem like market testing, so it's dependent on people buying it. I feel like teens who just want something to play their cassettes on...
You're a lucky guy... One day hope to have a D6C, such a beautiful machine and a marvel of engineering. Welcome!
Agreed, this is why I feel a budget design made purely for tapes would be the way to go. The selling point for a modern Walkman needs to be...
You know I'm curious as to why Sony, Maxell etc. don't produce any new tapes, even if it's type 1 - is it that expensive to manufacture? I've...
UPDATE: Think I'll hold onto this model, not strapped for cash and it doesn't take up too much space. I think I've managed to track down...
I had a few Walkmans with scratchy pots recently, fixed them by reflowing the solder pads for them and also cleaning with IPA. Works a treat most...
Thanks for this suggestion also Mr X, but sadly all that I managed to find were random screws and whatnot. The c-clip vanished mysteriously, the...
Well I've been up since 6am (noon now) trying to find them... I think I'm out of luck. If anyone has any suggestions for an improved clutch...
Hi I've been trying to fix the dreaded FF/rewind clutch issue in this Walkman (really poorly engineering mechanism if you ask me, horrible for...
Hi speedy2.0, good news - the latch is fixed! I determined that there was no spring present in this mechanism, after carefully studying in it...
Hi all, this has been fixed. Turns out whoever had tried to replace the belt in this before me had messed with the switch present on the mechanism...
Hi, the title says it all really. Cleaned the internals with IPA and swapped the belt as usual, except now it plays the tapes in reverse! I...
Hi all, again this one was fixed quite simply too. I'd still like to know if T301 is an important component, as well as what it is and if I can...
Hi, it's fixed. The spring was a red herring for another project it turns out. The rewind button was slightly bent up to begin with. After hours...
Ah, interesting point about the screws. I've loosened them up a bit, latch is the same but as long as it's not running the risk of a short now...
I'm gonna have to look into de-oxit, I've been using IPA only for years. Just for posterity I checked the capacitors for continuity yesterday and...
Hi there, Yet another attempted repair with a problem, very sorry to pester you all. I was given a Walkman EX-194 (a more complex assembly,...
Hi Longman, you were right. It's all restored up again, after desoldering the volume slider, leaving it to soak in IPA and also cleaning the...
