This makes two, but this one works and runs/sounds excellent!.

The other I tried to restore as it was not working when I bought it. I replaced all the belts, idler and lights. It ran great for about three hours, then went dead. Lights up, tape turns but no sound and after a few minutes it shuts down. Have made several attempts to figure it out, to no avail. I guess it's now a parts machine to support the "new" deck?

Also picked up more albums;

Jeff Beck---Beck-Ola

Mott the Hoople---All the young Dudes

Donald Fagan---The Night Fly

Atomic Rooster---Made in England

$5 each at a local record store called "Vinyl Daze"

cool
I have a Nakamichi BX-300 that I need to get some belts for
I have Nakamichi BX-150 that sounds pretty good too

I love getting a great sounding cassette for $.49...of course not all of them sound good but when they do it is awesome. Try some of those old XDR cassette tapes from Capitol that came out in the 80s and early 90s...stands for Extra Dynamic Range.
