Re: decca legato De luxe cassette
think I've solved the problem. someone has put the cassette player back after taking the back off and they have crushed the speaker wire

Re: Decca Legato De luxe cassette.
Crushing a wire is very unlikely to drop the volume!
-Have you cleaned the heads? if so, clean them again. And again. ;-) -Use a prerecorded tape from a major record label and check the head alignment. -Clean the rec-playback internal slide switch with Servisol. Post back once you've done these basics if you still have problems.
