    Great video. I just wish you showed us how to take the unit apart because I'm trying to fix one😁

      This is now really relatively simple and easy to service. Above all, it is robust and durable. Only the counter belt can drive you to despair. As it can have many faults/problems in many places, a single video is never of any use.

    I am refurbishing one right now. I have the schematic but not the service manual. The head had an open right channel so I put a different type of head in and need to calibrate it. Do you know which trimmer pots control which functions?

    Excellent, thanks for the true “open boxing”.
    Anyone know the difference between the Akai GXC-46D and the GXC-46?

      The D stands for Dolby…..so one has it and the other doesn’t.

      いいえ。DはD eckのDです。RCA端子のみ。
      GXC-46は、アンプ内蔵しています。直接スピーカー🔈を接続できます、

    Hello, I got a GXC-41D which has an issue, after some time the playback start to slow down. Also in recording, I can record just left channel and nothing on right one even if the audio pass between two channels and I can hear it stereo while recording with the headphones. Also, how did you remove the upper cover? I can remove the bottom part but now upper one to perform cleaning. Could you help me on that?

    I have a GXC-45D which looks very similar to this..however the motor is not working..any ideas where i can source for one?

    • @hifiboy3896
      @hifiboy3896  2 роки тому

      Did you check the motor? Usual thoose motors very robust. Any fuse defect or others? Best is to look for a cheap bad looking piece of a GXC-45D with motor ok and then replace it with it.
