    I did the belts on my teenage yrs Triumph made (Currys -Hitachi made ) Cassette player . Part of a stack system they sold !
    It wasnt a job I want to do again in a hurry either ,and despite me etting it up and running with some belt selection pack ,I have yet to record anything on it !
    All my pre recorded cassettes are about goosed too ,so apart from feeling I have done a good job , I dont quite know what comes next !!

    The Aiwa looks dead sexy mind . I have an old HMV stack I need to sell ,but its in my bookcase and I would love to just illuminate the meters just for effect and decoration . Looks are its best feature too unfortunately
    I only ride 'em, I don't know what makes 'em work

    Yeah do it for a bit of fun but you soon learn that pre recorded cassettes are goosed or need play trim away from the original deck. I dabble and have a bit of retro fun making my own recordings on TDK tapes. I like the ability to play tapes that turn up

    I just like to see the meters light up and keep my TDK MA tapes factory sealed

    However its limitations and all that dolby malarkey mean that Currys dont sell them anymore or hadnt you noticed
