Vector Research VCX-250 cassette deck: Volume difference playback vs. recording
Hello,
I have just bought a used Vector Research VCX-250 cassette deck and, when making a recording, the volume, which can be heard with headphones connected, is much higher than the volume of the playback of the same recording.
Also, the sound quality doesn't seem to change much between record and playback: The only thing that changes is volume.
Furthermore, when recording, the VU-meter lights up strongly, but during playback, it barely responds at all.
I am just an amateur, but I suspect that the volume difference between playback and record could be corrected via variable resistors located somewhere on the circuit board. If this is the case, I don't know where to look, because no service manuals seem to be available online for this model.
Thank you for any help you can offer.
