We still have a good local supply of type II. Recently acquired a box of type III for a great price because the plastic wrappers had started to...
Yep. Not worth the effort. I've acquired a few similar players usually bundled with some desirable cassettes still in their plastic wrappers. I've...
Well maybe it's got dried grease on the motor assembly. If it's not affecting the audio out might be improved by lubricant. It's probably a cheap...
Chinese cassette player "WM-07" !!. A tad cheeky to use that model prefix. Where have I seen that before? :)
Yes it's been replaced. More thought required on this one. There has to be a dry joint or cracked trail somewhere.
Thanks. I'll check that too. Have replaced quite a few caps but not sure about that one in C608.

Well the ones I bought years ago were 815N53F which are replicas but I believe can be used in place of the genuine CX20084. I'm about to find out....
Oh wow. Glad I saw this thread as there has been recent comment on Tapeheads about fake CX20084 chips but the ones I purchased several years ago...
The D6 is looking better as time passes. The potted or hybrid modules this release used for muting, Dolby and speed control can all be repaired...
That's what we all want to know. Whilst it's clear that any D6C with a 6 digit SN did not have the pointy amorphous head I have anecdotal evidence...
Never seen these prefix letters on serial numbers either on any I have or worked on. @Deb64 has probably seen and restored more D6 and D6C units...
