Some more from my muttant collection... Unisef, Lasonic and "PAUSONIC" by hardmen posted Feb 18, 2017 at 3:27 PM
HARDMEN, nice mini-collection!! What are those beauties around JVC RC-550? Also, I keep asking but no one seems to know (or care): How does JVC 550 play stereo tapes? It picks just one channel, or downmixes L+R into mono? Thank you!
Thanks Jorge. Still nos tested with my cassettes tonobserve that, promisse will make tomorrow and let you know... About the boxes around, it's a sort of sharps, sanyos and JVCs... Cheers.
Get well and do not worry! I do not think I will be able to get one anyway... Will ask the guys "next room", they are discussing Sony which looks (to me) exactly like JVC 550
Hello Jorge On tape, play both channels in mono. On Aux In, you need to set MONO on the source connected. More Eye Candy... ...some "bling" on TRK 9150 speakers (stickers by Eric from Boomboxery). Cheers.
Ebay is the best place to look for 'cheap' boxes, I got my Panasonic TR1200G for £58 and it weighs a ton, it did all work but something's gone wrong with the telly part, I get sound but no picture so I've stored it in the shed till I can afford a repair (if that's possible), still plays cassettes and radio. I think all my machines have minor issues but that's me - a problem magnet, everything I touch goes wrong though in most cases the issues don't affect use all that much, just an annoyance. The Hitachi TRK 3D50 is a bit selective on one tape deck but will play 90% of my tapes, the other deck's 100%. The Hitachi TRK 3D88 doesn't auto stop fast-winding on the inner deck (1), on the Sharp WQ T484 the speakers crackle for some reason and the left (white) phono socket is buggered, on the Philips D8334 one tape deck, play/record, doesn't work (the receiving hub doesn't turn and tapes get chewed) but it will fast-wind in either direction. I've got a Sharp 10P18H coming, I'll give that less than an hour to go tits up somehow! - like I said, I'm a shit magnet.
Yep, right, bud, it's a Hitachi trademark. One of guesses about it's origin is that Hitachi marketers desided to use the Latin verb. per-disco, didici, 3, v. a., to learn thoroughly or completely, to get by heart (rare but class.): omnia jura belli, Cic. Balb. 20, 47: locus de moribus est oratori perdiscendus, id. de Or. 1, 15, 69: hominis speciem pingere, id. ib. 2, 16, 69: ad perdiscendum, Plaut. Truc. 1, 1, 1; cf. Cic. de Or. 3, 36, 147; id. Fam. 7, 14, 2 al.; Tib. 1, 10 (9), 65.
