【Overview】 ・This item is a repaired and restored junk item from over 45 years ago. Although the normal operation of all functions has been repeatedly confirmed, it is being sold as a junk item due to its age. Due to the recent increase in return scams, we are unfortunately unable to accept returns. Please understand that this item is sold as-is, with no claims or returns. 【Product Description】 Product: Stereo Cassette Deck Manufacturer: Technics Model Number: RS-M270X Release Date: 1981 Price: 79,800 yen 【Appearance】 ・Both the front panel and the chassis are very clean, and I believe it is in excellent condition considering its age. 【Repairs and Adjustments】 ・Disassembly, cleaning, and lubrication of the drive unit (front and rear) ・Repair of the dbx indicator lamp ・Adjustment of the electronic control motor speed ・Adjustment of recording and playback levels, FL meter sensitivity ・Adjustment, demagnetization, and cleaning of the record/playback head azimuth ・Cleaning of the pinch roller and capstan 【Operation Check】 ・This deck is equipped with a direct drive motor that directly drives the capstan, so there are no belts. Therefore, you don't have to worry about the deterioration of belts. ・The function keys are logic controlled. ・It is equipped with Dolby noise reduction and dbx. ・It has been confirmed that all functions, including recording, playback, pause, fast forward, rewind, Dolby circuit, dbx circuit, timer playback, and recording, are operating normally. 【Sound Quality Check】 ・As far as listening to commercially available music tapes, I believe it has sound quality that is sufficient for enjoying music as a cassette deck that is over 45 years old (wow and flutter 0.08%, which is very good). (Recording and playback may be poor depending on the condition of the tape) 【Accessories】 ・1 test tape used for confirming recording and playback operation and adjustment 【Important Notes】 ・Plastic parts have deteriorated over time and may cause malfunctions, so please use it for about 1-2 hours a day. ・The playback speed (pitch) can be finely adjusted with the semi-fixed resistor of the FG direct drive motor control circuit, but it requires opening the chassis. 【Reference】 https://audio-heritage.jp/TECHNICS/player/rs-m270x.html
