Vintage Cassette Deck - first steps in repairing a cassette deck that appears 100% non functional.
I have repaired a great deal of vintage cassette decks. This short clip describes my initial steps in repairing a cassette deck that will not work at all. Sometimes this step is all that you need to do. Sometimes you need to do more. In the case of this deck, it was all I needed to do.

    Hi again, Just noticed this NAD. I repaired a compleley broken NAD 6040. Both VU meters were disfunctional for a start - their dial loading springs had buckled and so were set at various points. Once the springs have gone, it's 'goodbye' to the meters. I have replaced them with a set of Chinese made VU meters; beggers can't be choosers! ;o)

    I also have this deck, and have been working on it for nearly a week. What's your opinion on the RW function - does the deck easily rewind from one end of the tape to the other end?

    • @sayhellohello
      @sayhellohello Před 12 dny

      Once it was all cleaned up with new belts it ran smoothly. The belts are sensitive. They do require the exact sizing If they are a touch too wide, tight, or loose you will have issues. Try and source out the exact correct belts.

    • @JamesE707
      @JamesE707 Před 11 dny

      @@sayhellohello The main drive belt is 88mm diameter, by 5mm wide. It's about 0.5mm/0.55m thick. Measured, it's about 0.25% slow, which is about as good as I'll get it. The RW/FF clutch belt needs to be thick, and so the best I have sourced is 37.5mm diamter, by 1.5mm thick, but not 1.9mm as this is too tight in my opinion. The main clutch at the rear offers too little coefficient of friction, but yes, I've cleaned mine too, and added a new felt pad for the clutch. Yes, it rewinds all the way, but struggles near the end. Why? - the take-up reel table is naturally frictional, it appears to be the way it's been designed. I've opened it up and compare it with the service manual schematics.

    • @sayhellohello
      @sayhellohello Před 9 dny

      @@JamesE707 It is hard to know what is going on without seeing the deck. It should not struggle near the end of the rewind. Ideally, you would want the tape to rewind and fast-forward normally right up until the end of the tape. What I would check is the motor. I do have to qualify myself by stressing that I am not a technician. I have been mentored by a very good professional technician. He has helped me a lot. But, the experience also showed me that I am not a professional technician - just a guy who likes to tinker around with vintage stereo gear. Good luck with it!

    • @JamesE707
      @JamesE707 Před 9 dny

      @@sayhellohello Thanks for your replies. Well, as it happens I am a semi-retired mathematician and electronics engineer. The problem is not the motor - the motor is not at all stressed by the various loadings. The free-running current is about 162mA, and barely alters through any period during Play/RW/FF. The problem is now only slight, however what causes the slowing down of RW towards the end is *clutch slip*, and it does this for two reasons: coefficient of friction of the rear clutch is not quite high enough, and/or the frictional load offered by the rightmost reel table is quite high. I believe it's a design flaw. I have over 30 cassette decks, and it's not that uncommon that some machines begin to struggle with RW towards the end of the RW run. Sorry if I gave the impression that I was asking for help, I was merely comparing other folk's AKAI machines. Cheers. James.

    • @JamesE707
      @JamesE707 Před 9 dny

      I meant to add that I have cleaned the rear clutch completely and added new clutch felt, and even 'sandwiched' a little silicone grease to increase slip friction slightly. Yes it works, but not as efficient as FF. Anyway, I am being a bit 'picky', no worries. :o)

    My uncle had the 5220 which was the exact same deck but was equipped with Dolby and it sounded great. I made plenty of mixtapes on it in the late 70's and early 80's before I got my own cassette deck. I suspect Marantz made the 5200 for people who would buy their receivers that had built-in Dolby noise reduction.
