I remembered now, the price was including shipping (which was in the range of 15euros). Even then, the price is still too high. I also remembered...
@TooCooL4 Unfortunately, those who buy just for display are the ones increasing the market prices. The most I have paid on a cassette was on a...
Unfortunately, metal tapes are very expensive as of 2021. Most start at 20 euros/pcs, but can go to 70 or even 100 for the high end ones (I'm...
Not breakable, it's broken for sure. None of these walkmans with thin gear has an intact one in 2021.
That Hitachi TRK7620 seems to be a rarer boombox. I'm not familiar with the unit itself, but at first glance I can't find a belt specifically...
The WM-2 has good sound, but do keep in mind later ones (higher serial number) have the broken center gear problem, as the DD ones. The...
@therealmccoykoi Are you sure you are dealing with a short ? The fact that lifting the board a little brings the sound back can also be an...
REASSEMBLY: - put the spring back into the latch; - put the latch back onto the case, it will sit at an angle, because the spring is not...
This thread covers how to remove the cover on SONY WM-DD series walkmans: this includes the WM-D3, but also WM-2 and WM-5 (which are not DD, but...
Given what you say, it is likely that this is a common problem. The fact that it's only at the beginning of reverse indicates a mechanical...
That is why it's better to measure the wow&flutter. That way we can make a clear assesment if that is a problem or not. This may or may not be...

@Raul Although this is not a solution to your problem, I would be curious to know what high wow&flutter means in terms of actual figure. WFGUI can...
In the picture you posted, all 3 parts seem to look a little bit different, but the 2 on the top seem more similar than the bottom one. Of course,...
@Emiel I would not worry about one of these. The power is just too low to be of a real concern. I was stating the legal stuff just for reference,...
Laws in regard to radio require transmitters to be tested to comply with regulatory standards and have a certification which proves that. The...
@Silver965 I do have a feeling that FM radio will become a thing of the past at some point. The good thing about 88-108Mhz is the frequencies are...
Looks in mint condition, also having the remote sensor. I see a leather case underneath it, is that for the D-250 ? Mine has a carrying case, but...
By "tape selector" I suppose you mean the tape in switch, which detects a cassette is inserted, no ? I would clean that first (Kontakt 60), just...
Very good point @Silver965 ! In my view, the best ones in terms of ergonomy are going to be the slim ones. Would also consider how well one fits...
