Default Re: AKAI M-9 Tape recorder/player.

I did wonder about making a brass bush milling out the broken area and soldering it in place, but it was suggested that the cam would probably dissolve, so I have not done any more with the 4T cam at present after seeing the state of the rest of the cams.

For a machine that was given to me to see if it could be passed on to raise a bit for charity there were no takers so I am not sure how much money or time I want to put into it.

Still awaiting some replacement speakers to see what it sounds like and to confirm if both channels are OK, with luck the speakers may arrive today. I guess it is something to play with, just wish it did not weight as much.
