    Do you think I should do the same on my TCK-990ES, replacing the capacitors with the Wurth once?

    Здравствуйте! Попробовал с Вами связаться по e-mail насчет ремонта моих дек, но уже неделю нет ответа. Может я что то неправильно или не туда послал. Как можно с Вами связаться?
    Спасибо!

    Hi, I have many cassette recorders facing the same problem: tape folds appear after recording and fast forward. May I ask if this is a case of recorders having weak torque?

      @@HoYinLau-b8o understood now, if it happened over time and you did not change settings of the tape path, then I may see only two reasons - bad left pitch roller or poor back tension on the left reel.

      @@hifirulezzz @hifirulezzz I see. Since this situation is happening on my Sony tc d5m, wm-d6, and wm-d6c, which only have one pinch roller and it is on the right, can I make conclusion that the problem is due to poor back tension of the left reel?

    What type and make of solid electrolytic did you use on your deck? Might try this myself. Thanks.

      Solid polymer capacitors from Wurth Electronic, available on Digikey.

    I don't like nakamichi sound, so I don't like the mod. nakamichi sound: bass and highs are elevated unnatually.

      He-he, you should compare the original source and the recorded sound. And that is where we achieve a full match. Nakamichi was the best in doing this full match; that's why their decks are still appreciated so much. Don't be fooled. Nothing is elevated except some bass in earlier models. Sony did great decks before 1986, and then, suddenly, decided to go with the compressed sound.
