Hello and welcome to the forum ! Sorry, but what I see in pictures is very far from mint condition ! There are significant signs of wear on the...
I am definetly interested in WM-10 parts, hence why I asked for updates once a prototype gear is made functional. From my observation, it might...
You need to break the gear in another point (or two) in order to fix this gear properly, because the break is usually not a fixed number of teeth....
JVC CX-F3K/CX-4 & AKAI PM-R5 - mechanism will need a cleaning and re-lubrication of rotating parts; - motor will need to be lubricated; - belt...
Panasonic/National RX-2700 - mechanism is identical to the Infinity Intimate Stereo, AKAI-PM01, Cybernet MiniConcert/Intimate, the extra parts...

This thread will cover the repair procedure for the clutch in the CX-5, CX-7, CX-F5, CX-F7, CX-R7 and CX-V9 walkmans. They all share the same...
I almost always use NiMH rechargable batteries in walkmans because of 3 aspects: - convenience (with a supply they're not so portable anymore); -...
I think you are just very lucky as it has been mentioned already. I have seen others saying such units exist, but I've never seen a DD without a...
It is to be noted I used normal capacitors (polymer), not audio grade ones as those cannot be found in Europe in these small packages. Have used...

Thanks for the reply ! The one in the ebay link looks to be a TYPE I, if you zoom in the first picture it can be seen that the tape color is a...
I bought a set of 3 such cassettes locally along with 2 ferrochrom and a Cbox. The set was bought mostly for the 2 ferrochrom ones, but I was...
To put it simply, there's not a market for such walkmans anymore. It is a shame indeed, but the world was a different place back when these...
Yes it is. Most of the pads are labeled already, so let's take them one by one: M+ ---> motor positive it's the red wire M- ---> motor...
I do seem to have a couple, but most are with the mechanism. Have attached one with the PCB for reference, but it's from the component side and...
I'm not aware of an all-around test tape, most are dedicated to one or a couple of similar tasks: Dolby levels, azimuth, wow&flutter, crosstalk,...
This can be done to any linear supply which does not have a regulator (and most do not), because all these supplies will have a significantly...
Pre-recorded tapes encoded with Dolby C I think there are very few out there. And I wouldn't trust that they haven't degraded and will likely need...
The idea itself is nice, but there are some tell-tale signs it probably won't be manufactured (at least not at a reasonable cost): - given the...
