Its a beast!

I cannot believe you are using any kind of lubricant on something that you should be using isopropyl alcohol or something that does not let it be slippery? I think that's a huge mistake

Thanks for taking the time to make these videos, very informative for when I attempt to make similar repairs

awesome machine

Well done, Good looking deck all lit up!!

Bonito mecanismo!.

My first stereo system. Had all in 7. A7.f7.ct7r. Pl7. Very good quality and long life. 👍👍🇩🇪

I just love this Pioneer - it's just a lovely looking deck with a performance to match, thank you for resurrecting it!

Very cool tape direction lighting.

It sounds a bit dull?

A very good video, sir. Reducing your stress by doing things in stages is a good idea. Keep up the good work!

Those LED indicators for the tape movement are mesmerising

I've now recapped the power supply. This deck was full of old "Marcon" capacitors in the PS, and four of them were less than half their rated capacitance. I found the same thing in the power supply of the Akai GX-R88, so any Marcon capacitors I find from here on out are on my insta-change list. I have yet to find a worse capacitor brand inside these old tape decks.

Thank you for all your videos. I am currently restoring an HMK7000 music centre that shares the same transport mechanism as the one in this unit. I had the same problem with the clutch. I took the rare earth magnets out of a 2.5" hard drive which were extremely thin. I broke them up into pieces and stuck them to the back of the clutch magnet. Works a treat. Just add or subtract pieces as you need to get the required torque. I did remove the lid to the pully magnet but the magnetism holds it together so it works fine without it. I did not pull the magnet off the shaft to remove the cover. I just cut the lid of the pully up with wire cutters. It is a soft metal so it was easy.

Actually it’s February 😂

Damn! I love this device... and tape transport is build solid... Nice job of reviving it, looking forward for full service. Cheers mate!

Noce looking deck

Hi

Pleasant journey..

That black button thing that fell out is for the cassette door tin back plate on my Onkyo - probably the same on the Nak.

If only those walls in the Simmie Hotel could talk. Oh Canada!

Send it to " 12voltvids" ! He can fix anything! Lool for the channel " 12voltvids"

Gotta have those dual capstans if you want low W&F - I’ve rebuilt many 2 head decks with 1 capstan and although they perform well, their numbers are never great. Even did a 3 head but with only 1 capstan and that too never gave very low W&F under 0.05 which is still very good, but not awesome. This is a great deck has everything it needs to be a top performer. You make great videos 👍

No worries on using 120/125 AC vs Japan 100v A/C? I avoid Japanese audio unless I need parts. I do mainly DC circuits, but nearly the same. Why is USA voltage listed as 110/120 and goes to 125.x when measured? Please advise.

Where is the back tension belts on the BX-150....or does it not have one?

Onky o 😄👍🏼

Very much enjoyed video as I am trying to repair an MXD-D3. insert/eject works but TOC and read do not. Thinking dirty lens, but inside very clean. PS: How do you have a JIS and Phillips screw driver w.o changing bits. Very different and JIS for working on Japanese equipment is very much needed. cheers and thanks again for posting a detailed video on MD's

Curious what MolyKote you like to use?

I want that DENON deck... what a beutiful machine sleek and sexy... will it run on 240 volts ?

Congrats mate! those are quite good md players actually. Cheers!

Hi I just picked up one excuse me for my lack of knowledge on them. From what I have read an infinity ii, with the push button equalizer not slider. Everything seems to work but I may have made a mistake when buying this because it is going into a pickup that is a non infinity system 85 ram. Everything boots up on it and it will search stations but I get no sound. My speakers will pop when turning the unit on but no sound will come out on a station. I know the speakers are fine because I have a non infinity later probably 2000 3 channel eq radio. That will engage my speakers fine is there some issue with it being an infinity head unit that is causing me to have no sound out of my speakers maybe something within the pin connectors that isnt the same as a non infinity system? Thanks

What an absolutely wonderful town. Thank you for the tour.

Maybe I missed one or two, but I don't think I heard any "so.. yeah"s in this video. Impressive -- habits are tough to break.

Nice video, thanks. I believe you are doing great, just keep on working on the project. I would look at at set of MJE15032 / MJE15033 or MJE13034 / MJE15035 to replace the 2SA1930 / 2SC5171. For The 2SC1740, i would try the 2SC2274F, 2SC1213AD or maby 2SC1815GR / 2SC1815BL. Hope to see you succeed :-)

The unintentional ASMR in your videos is better than deliberate AMSR :)

I have the DD-7, it’s fantastic! I also have a BX-300, also great, one thing I would note, when cleaning any of these vintage units, I’ve used goof off, go figure with micro fibre , the Nak was mint except for mould spots all over which I thought was grime, oil, nope mold, would not come off with anything else, goof off was last cleaner I had and it worked, couple of cleanings and it worked, be gentle of course
