2013年4月29日 · I just recently finished this project of restoring a DUAL 1218 and I’d figure I’d share some pictures and basic advice, both to encourage others and to show off a little *devil*. I got this table last September by responding to a CL ad for a number of TTs that were up for sale. I came away from...

2014年10月20日 · I have an old Dual 1218 turntable. Once it used to function but for the last two decades I didn't use it. Now I want to use it again but I no longer works. There are at least two problems: - I can't move the arm from its resting position. - I can't move the Start-Stop switch towards the start...

2024年2月24日 · I have both a 1218 and 1219. First up, my 1218. Cleaned, lubricated and installed a new Steuerpimple. All functions work perfectly!

2013年1月1日 · I had that Dual through 1980, though I had upgraded to a V15-III, which I kept when I sold it, clearly remember how I though idler tire for a TT was so "old" tech. Bought a Mitsubishi LT-20 after that, and put the V15-III on it.

2012年4月14日 · It’s pretty neat, my first dual capstan deck. Its 3 head, dual capstan, has Dolby B, has level calibration for Dolby tracking with test tone generator, bias fine tune on the back & an output level control.

2014年12月3日 · I have a Sony TC-WE635 dual cassette deck. It fairly suddenly stopped working. It won't play, rewind, record, or fast forward. When I turn it on, it clicks several times. An -E-- appears in the display. Any ideas about what's wrong?

2017年10月14日 · I recently acquired a Dual C830 Cassette deck and was told by Vince at Galaxie Electronics in Pittsburgh that it needed new gears. One of them he told me is a big yellow gear and the one that meshes with it.

2020年10月4日 · TapeHeads.Net Member If your deck is a 50/60hz unit, the reel motor caps will be dual value 3.9+0.9 caps, one dual value cap for each motor. If your deck is 60hz only, it will have a 3.9uf cap for each motor.

2025年3月22日 · A couple of months ago, I won a TEAC X-10 (not the X-10R) open reel deck. The seller, as expected, described it as fully functional and "plug and play," requiring no servicing. The reel motors run steadily and silently, with no signs of tape slippage, loose or excessive braking, or erratic...

2021年5月1日 · How is a dual deck different from a single-well deck in this respect? I've had many dual decks and none of them had the capstan motors running nonstop. The Sony TC-WR901ES I had didn't do this and I think it replaced this model?
