    Mine was brought in 2002 in silver color and still working. When it is still brand new, it has the problem you mentioned at the beginning of this clip of reading some of the CDs, it fails to read the disc, but by open the disc tray and re inserted the CD again may help in successful reading, just like at the beginning of your clip. One good feature of RV32 is when playing DVD of movie in 4:3 format, it will automatically fit the 16:9 aspect ratio of nowadays digital TV screen.

    its foolish to even consider that the source of the digital data matter. as long as data is not corrupt it does not matter if you get it from a CD or from a shaved CD or from a network cable or from a pendrive or from a 100 $ cd player or from a 2000 $ cd player, the data will be the very same. The further parts of the system can make a difference, DAC, preamp amp speakers, but the source of the data is totally 100% does not matte as long as it is not corrupted

    This deck is very intriguing. Did you see it had a tape speed selector? I've own decks with a pitch adjustment (speed fine tune) but never a speed selection. I have a Tascam multitrack that runs the tape about twice the normal speed but no other decks with a speed section. It looked like you could also manual calibrate the bias too. I didn't see anything about it having 3 heads tho. I bet it made nice recordings back in its day especially if you had type IV (metal) tapes.

    • @SomeDisassemblyRequired
      @SomeDisassemblyRequired 24 дні тому

      I didn't notice a speed selector but you might be able to determine that from a manual online.

    • @OneRoomShed
      @OneRoomShed 24 дні тому

      ​​​@@SomeDisassemblyRequired It definitely has speed select of 1 7/8 ips (standard) and 3 3/4 ips (double speed). At that speed the tape would have a wider frequency response and probably more headroom to record the audio louder. I know there are a few high end studio decks that could do this but I never thought a Fisher would have this feature. This just caught my attention. If it was a 3 head model I'd be drooling over it but that's kind of deal breaker for me. I bet this could sell for a lot more on eBay if the right person came across it. Btw, thanks for posting this. I love seeing this kind of stuff. subscribed!

      @christopherravn4657 8 днів тому

      ​@@OneRoomShedI don't comment much but I figured you'd like to know that they did in fact make a 3 head version of this deck, the CR 4029. Recently I bought one for just $22 from an estate sale and I finished cleaning it up and replacing the belts about a week ago. The recording this thing can make at double speed on a type two cassette is pretty incredible. I've posted more about mine on Reddit in the cassette culture sub if you're interested in seeing the official specs and some pics of the internals

    Does anyone remember the 90s fad with green markers on the edge of CDs to absorb stray laser light? Same BS! The player only reads reflected laser light reflected at the correct angle. Stray light bouncing around from "outside" cannot be read. The green marker BS was light bouncing around between the layers would be absorbed by the green marker on the outer edge. Thinking about it, the only way for that light to come in contact with the green marker is if it is leaving the CD anyway since coating was on outer edge. Pure BS. People swore they'd hear a significant change.🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Nice video of a Pioneer deck. I wouldn't say Top End unit as it replaced the CT-F500, which replaced the CT-F2121 (going back to 1974). That said, Pioneer budget cassette decks were very good value. My first component cassette deck in 1975 was the CT-F2121. It served me well until I upgraded to a more advanced machine in 1977. With vintage components, cassette decks probably require the most TLC. I have used a fair number of cassette decks over the years. I've owned; Akai GX-F31, Nakamichi BX-1, Akai CS-F14, Onkyo TA-630D, Nikko ND-590ll, Technics RS-m224, Yamaha KX-260 and Denon DRM-800A. Still in service are the DRM-800A and KX-260 in my main system and the BX-1 in my kitchen hifi system. Ain't no doubt about it, cassettes are convenient.

    I have the same unit and the same problem with the speaker terminal. Found a replacement terminal on e-bay, but it did not combine the negative terminals, When I hocked it up the unit made a loud pop and one of the speakers sounded very tinny. Will try to combine the wires and see if it makes a difference.
