Re: How to silence a BSR tape deck.
The idea is fine, but note turntable drive belts tend to be thin and stretch might be of
concern, as driving a capstan flywheel with additional pinch roller pressure could
result in a worse wow and/or flutter performance.
A recording made before and played after the change could indicate if this is the case.
My Fidelity Playmaster TR5 with BSR TD2 deck from 1967 continues to function.
