my name is Rene, from 1985 to 1999 I used to repair in and out of warranty cassette decks and walkmans for Kenwood, Yamaha , Pioneer, Sanyo and other brands and with the current increasing interest in analog audio, and cassette decks in particular, I started this channel to share tips and tricks that I have picked up over the years.
I will mostly do 'end-to-end' video's about repairing, servicing and adjusting the deck from beginning to end with a lot of talking , showing , tips etc and very little editing.
If you have any questions or particular video's you would like to see just reach out and maybe I can assist ?

    Very nostalgic, I sold many KX-1200's at a&b Sound in Vancouver in the late eighties.

    thanks a lot for your videos. I wish i can repair myself my cassette decks. But I'm afraid i can break some plastic parts because I'm clumsy with my big hands.

    Hi Rene, Definitely a different format of Video, I thought I was watching a Video from a different Creator so had to double check, It is better hearing you Narrate the Video well to me anyway and no offense meant, Still watchable just very different, Oh btw, I had an issue with my Yamaha KX-400 the other day, I was playing a couple of Tapes and the last one I played was Rick Astley, I turned the tape over manually instead of using the Auto-Reverse feature and when it finished playing Side B the Heads would continuously Engage and then Disengage and kept doing it until I turned the power Off, (Thought I’d been Rick-Rolled) 😂 I managed to remove the Cassette after Powering it Off at the right time, Any suggestions on what would cause that?

    You are absolutely correct ! I wondered how many people would notice 😉 It’s not an auto reverse deck so the flywheels should not be running opposite, I corrected it after I posted the video
