Hi,I just recently sell this deck to a friend that collects Silver-gear. I received it in slightly bad condition, broken power switch, bad belts and so on.. So I did spend some time on it.
(On a pictures you posted also look like Power-switch knob is broken..? )
It has a very god audio circuitry, playback and recording sounds extremely well.
Bias and Rec-level settings are very simple to adjust; you should just adjust levels for both channels
to a center-red LED in a LED bar-graph.
Otherwise, mechanics on this deck is not so great, compared to other High-End Double-Capstan designs. It is a Single-motor, Single-Capstan, belt drive.
I did have some problems with speed stability, but with new belt and new capstan it works without
a problem.
It is for sure great piece, for me one of the nicest “ Silver-decksâ€â€¦Regards, Davorin
