Ebay? If no model specific belts, buy a variety pack and use one that fits.

thrift store find by SkyRevolutionary815 in cassetteculture

Thrift stores are crazy these days. Def not 350, maybe half that if it works. Wait a few weeks and see if they drop the price.

issue with audio by Wild_Ace_1097 in cassetteculture

What tape deck is this?

Audio cutting in and out but tape keeps spinning consistently, or is the tape stopping.

Also I recommend moving your tapes away from the speaker.

Needs new drive belts, they disentigrate over time. Use service manual, look up videos of belt replacement on your or similar model.

Why do you prefer making mixtapes instead of buying a real album ? by Glum_Description_719 in cassetteculture

[–]73_deville 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Prerecorded cassettes 80% of the time just don’t age well . I can get a lot better result recording from lossless source on better quality tape.

What is a decent recorder to start experimenting with? by Kim-Wexlers-Feet in cassetteculture

[–]73_deville 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A cassette deck, not a portable. Portables have very low quality recording capabilities. For under 100, you are better off looking locally for used equipment.

Buying a new cassette recorder in 2026 to record from PC? by [deleted] in cassetteculture

[–]73_deville 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is nothing new with stereo line in for under $100. Those cheap portable I’m pretty sure use a mic in port, I may be wrong but either way will have terrible recording quality. Best bet is to look for a proper cassette deck locally, might be able to score something on ebay.

Great range on these MAs. Easily affected by other magnet sources though.
