Jvc is a good brand as well

@@HjortePlayground yes it was , 2 bad caps 1 in the record circuit and 1 in the play circuit

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy Thanks! I have an Onkyo TA-2058 doing the same thing, but with the Monitor switch instead. Loud thump in the left channel. I can't smell any p*ss, but maybe I need to get my nose closer to the PCB.

@@HjortePlayground also when caps leak , they leave an oily spot around them , like wd-40 has been dropped there (might be something to look for) If all else fails just by-pass the mpx filter , no one records from radio anymore anyway so that pilot signal doesnt need to be filtered out ? Will make for better recordings as well without that filter

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy As I said, it's the Monitor switch, not the MPX switch :) Unfortunately, there are no visible signs on the PCB of any caps leaking.

the kenwood shouldnt make any audible noise either ? maybe just starting to show its age ?

​@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy...the Decks are late 80's to early 90's...35 years give or take a year..one of Kenwood mechanisms or transports as they call them nowadays..DeckB is more clatter than A..take it out..strip it and grease it..that'll probably help..lot of work..and i might screw it up..changing the belts was one thing..dismantling it is a challenge reassembling it to work..is something else..dunno

@@markianclark9645 i’ll see if i can find a 4020 and do a service / motor replace video on it , i want to document as many kenwood and yamaha decks as i can so that mode should be on the list as well

@@universalhead thats good to know , i like to use ipa

Where to buy Rubber Renew in Europe?

@@HjortePlayground i wish i knew , i found some on amazon for €45 per spray bottle , extortionate if you ask me

MG Chemicals is the brand. I wouldn’t be familiar with Europe. There is MG Chemicals UK Limited . Amazon sells it in North America.

@@FunzieOne thank you ! Glad it was helpful

I will measure the belt that i used tomorrow for you and let you know . The small belt is to provide back tension to the supply wheel , when its not there and your pinch rollers are a little bit dirty or the tape path is a little off the deck will start to eat/destroy tapes (i show that in the next video kenwood kx-880hx in 5 days)

@@PerSkeles k-540 , pre kx series

@@Bus2000 absolutely, and i didnt touch it , this was out of the factory and without auto-bias so i left it ‘as is’

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy amazing

i am convinced that kenwood, some models not all, can compete with all the 'bigger' and 'better' brands out there freq response during record and playback is flat , as it should be , and not 'colored' like some of the brands that are regarded higher ? record should be as close as possible to the source , any personalized coloring of the recorded sound should / can be done later but the recorded tape should be as the original

Very cool!

Thank you for the compliment!

cog wheel was ok , i didnt see any cracking on the idler either , i will check the caps and replace if thats needed , thank you for the heads up !

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy If the caps on the DD board are bad, there will be a clicking noise coming from the transport even in STOP mode. It's usually easy to hear, especially if you open the door and put your ear to the opening. Another thing with this deck: It will always use 3-4 watt of power even if it's turned off but still connected to the mains. I still like the deck though :)

@@HjortePlayground no clicking sound here , but i will replace them anyway to Prevent future issues

@@Bus2000 I am glad the video helped !

@@sacflies yes, once those belts turn to Mush you have a real jon on your hands

@@sacflies no i am Not , sorry!

@@sacflies that’s the tricky part, getting it on with the plate mounted . You’ll get it after 30-40 decks 😁 but it takes a little practice

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy I'm sure you're right! I was asking myself "how in the world did he get the belt on the pulley so easily?". I am loving the 952! It is sounding fantastic. I oiled both motors and the squealing noise is gone. I had to adjust the speed, especially on deck 1, after replacing the belts. I just did it by ear. I streamed the album of the tape that I was playing and matched it up the best I could. I don't have all the fancy gadgets that you have! But I think I got it dialed in pretty good. Your video was extremely helpful! Thanks for posting it. I will be following your channel regularly. Thanks.

@@sacflies well done !

@@angel604cry the deck or the video ? 😁

That would be a good set

Thank you ! For the NAK in and outputs I use the behringer uca202 , that enables me to use the USB port on my laptop bypassing the line in / mic out and gives me constant levels without having to calibrate in and output levels (set once and forget)

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy Hi I’m trying to understand if I’m using it right. All the calibration is hidden. , I’m using the Behringer UCA222 , same thing just different colour. Shows as USB Audio Codec on laptop. So I did the initial calibration of the UCA 222 with loopback cable and saved to disc. Anaxwaves video said put the record level to half way mark on the deck , and every deck you test you have to calibrate to zero DB on the NAK meters using both the volume control of the audio Codec speakers and volume control of audio codec microphone. Then if it still won’t calibrate to zero if none of that works you can use the input sensitivity and input balance controls under the NAK T-100 menu. Is this correct?

@@universalhead what I read I believe you are doing the initial setup correct

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy Thanks for the reply , interesting content in your videos.

@@FunzieOne thank you ! I would have to look it up but it won’t surprise me if the base transport is the same

@@Bus2000 yes it absolutely is , it’s a shame other brands did not use this (afaik)

@@professorvoluck9311 I kindly disagree with the alcohol vs rubber renue I am using 99.9% alcohol , no residue and nothing left behind on the rubber (vs the other liquids that do leave a residue and leave something behind on the rubber) I really prefer to use tri-chloride but that’s no longer available

Ps these don’t have a rubber idler 😊

@@m.j.morshead thank you ! And I agree , it is a good looking machine

@@enzobomba3941 I used this one webspareparts.com But it can be a bit of a mixed bag regarding quality , some belts are better than others so you may have to have a look on for example eBay as well

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy thank you very much

Thank you, I hope it’s informative and helps

Anything I can do to improve ?

@@jeffnatzke2670 thank you 🙏 I haven’t done a 6300 (yet) but I can see if I can get my hands on a broken one ?

@@Marc-i6d thanks! Much appreciated, it seems to be the consensus that I need to keep talking 😎

@@PercyScribble thank you so much !

@@FunzieOne choices these days are really limited , and due to lack of good transport development and manufacturing quality is just no longer available new

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy yeah, its sad

@@retro2409 I think you made the right choice going with the denon early 90s to mid 2000’s is not comparable in terms of quality , the denon is clearly a better machine

webspareparts.com/products/belt-kit-for-cassette-player-panasonic-sa-ak27 ali ove sve-u-jednom male sustave nije lako popraviti ako imate malo iskustva but these all-in-one small systems are nt easy to repair if you have little experience

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy hvala na odgovoru. Nemam neko iskustvo al moram pokušati.

from what i can see they are ALPS copies , the ALPS transports where widely used in the mid 90ies and these look like they were copied from that , or maybe simplified versions of those earlier transports

Nice isn’t it?

you can stack multiple of these on top of each other and then use them all at once , ie start recording all at once, at the same time dank je wel ;-)

Take you time and don’t rush it , it may take a few tries but in the end it’ll work

I wished I could just play my own music ! And thank you for subscribing

first 500 ;-) when we get to 1000 there will be something else

sure, let me see if i can find one for a reasonable price , may take awhile

i cant seem to find a pdf from the service manual ? i would have to look into the transport and see whats going on before giving any heads ups the silent treatment was just a fun little test , i am reverting back to my shatty old self shortly ;-)

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy No worries and thanks for having a look for me anyway Rene! 🙂

i used to work for yamaha repairing these , solid machines with fantastic sound !

You are absolutely correct ! I wondered how many people would notice 😉 It’s not an auto reverse deck so the flywheels should not be running opposite, I corrected it after I posted the video

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy thank you.

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy I point myself as a carefull one but i still cannot make my Kenwood KX-7030 playing with a good wow and flutter.

@@nikossoursos7032 did you try another belt from another source ? Can you see which frequency causes the W&F to be high ?

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy I have tried many belts but not from a differene source. This will be my next step.

I hope you enjoyed it ? Just trying something different 😊

@@cassettedeckandwalkmanre-mw1hy I prefer a little talk for what are you doing. But it is still ok.

@@nikossoursos7032 its hard for me to be this silent , so next video's will be 'normal' again ;-)

thank you !
