    my name is Rene, from 1985 to 1999 I used to repair in and out of warranty cassette decks and walkmans for Kenwood, Yamaha , Pioneer, Sanyo and other brands and with the current increasing interest in analog audio, and cassette decks in particular, I started this channel to share tips and tricks that I have picked up over the years.
    I will mostly do 'end-to-end' video's about repairing, servicing and adjusting the deck from beginning to end with a lot of talking , showing , tips etc and very little editing.
    If you have any questions or particular video's you would like to see just reach out and maybe I can assist ?

    good video. seems like a decent deck. Tascam/teac still operate, and are pretty much the only ones making cassette decks that arent just clones.

    Hi from France, I think you could have gone the whole distance and check the playback/Dolby level, the bias and record levels, as you already have the appropriate calibration cassette and you had the service manual. There were some level differences evident between deck 1 and 2. I like the Tascam/TEAC decks too!

      @florianm3170 yes i normally do all that on camera, but as you know , with a 2 head deck it gets very boring to watch someone record a freq. sweep for 4 minutes , then rewind, plt it back , make minute adjustments and do its again for 10 times until you get the settings just right , so i skipped the levels on this 2 head deck and if you look at some of my other 3 head video's i can actually show what the adjustment does

      @@cassettedeck-walkman-repair Cool, if you want to make it easier for calibrating 2-head decks you can always use the old method of recording white noise at -20dB and playing back while using a spectrum analyser like the one in the T-100 software. Does not take so much time.

      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

    Great video. Have you done maintenance or repairs on NAD cassette decks? I have a vintage NAD 6300. As far as I know, it still works. I have not used it in a while, but I'm curious about what should be done before putting it back in use after an extended lapse in usage. Thanks!

      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
