Hi guys. Could you, please, help to find the correct size of the belt for Nakamichi 700ZXE. Unfortunately, I could not find such info in service manual too. Thank you! Sorry for disturbing (
SCQ4.8 and SCY9.0 info taken from PRB Cross Reference Table According to those who restore Nak decks for a living, the only place to buy belts up to the original Nakamichi specs (and still made in Japan!) is from Marrs Communications. Belt kit for 700ZXE costs $49.50, but for the deck of such stratospheric quality I wouldn't want to gamble. Since Marrs Communications do not accept PayPal or CC, placing an order with them is a bit awkward, and it takes more than a few hours/days to get their response Here is a link where real professionals answer this question: Nakamichi Belt Dimensions document
Hi Jorge! Thank you for the reply with the links. Yeah, it is difficult to get the info about the correct size of capstan belt which is very important. Thank you!
@Andrei: Please Do post some photos of The Machine! If you need help getting belts/rubber tyres for this Nak just let me know... In a few weeks I am heading to Kiev and will be able to bring whatever is needed!!
Hi Jorge! Sorry for late reply! Appreciate that you are ready to help! Have you already arrived in Kiev? I have found some manufacturer in Japan, they still make the belts. The only issue is that they do not sell by belt, only in bulk. So I hope I will be able to find the solution!
