    Hi. Ever since I’ve had this Conion C-100, I’ve had a problem with recording. It records very quietly. Playback seems fine. I’ve been looking for the cause of this for a long time, but everything looks fine. Ultimately, I suspect the head is damaged or worn out. I’m attaching a photo of it that was taken when I took this Conion apart for inspection. Does its appearance indicate significant wear? What specifications should a replacement have? I have a Hitachi TRK-8800E and an Aiwe Cs-600, from which I might be able to get a head. Would that work?
