    Nakamichi BX-1  2 Head Cassette Deck-Refurbished 60 day warranty  INTERNATIONAL
    While most seller offer "as is" or say "belts changed" our has a
    Unconditional 30 day guarantee, completely
    refurbished, belts, adjusted, calibrated, lubed and thoroughly tested in recording and playback.
    BUYER EDUCATION IS IMPORTANT:
    More important than having the best specs in the cassette world is simply reliability. Unless you have a $ 20,000
    stereo
    system, hearing any difference in this one vs a $ 500 cassette deck will be hard to notice.
    You should always consider purchasing components that are commensurate with the rest of your system. Other words if you have a $ 1000 to $ 3000 system paying $ 500 for just a cassette deck is a waste of your money
    This Nakamichi BX-1 is a stereo cassette deck with Dolby B noise reduction, with a recommended retail price of USD 9
    The main features of the Nakamichi BX-1 are: 2 heads, mechanical 3 digit tape counter and memory stop, manual tape type selection and capable of handling normal, chrome and metal tapes with additional manual equalization selection, belt driven single-capstan transport.
    Typical front loading cassette deck with the cassette compartiment located on the left side of the deck. Tape eject is operated mechanically and the cassette needs to be placed with the side to be played facing forward in the cassette well.
    Level meters used on the BX-1 are digital LED peak reading meters. Full-logic transport controls used on the BX-1 let it respond to the slightest finger contact for fast and effortless transport function selection.
    The Dolby-B system reduces tape hiss on tapes recorded on the BX-1 by as much as 10 dB at the highest frequencies. The 19kHz multiplex pilot slgnal present in FM stereo broadcasts can cause false triggering of the noise reduction system. The switchable MPX filter of the BX-1 filters out the pilot signal, and assuring proper Dolby processing of FM stereo programs.
    For undisturbed listening a jack connector for a pair of stereo headphones is supplied. Connection to other audio components for plaback can be achieved by a RCA cable and recording from a source by a RCA cable.
    About 25 Years ago was the height of Cassette Tape Technology, even in the late 90's cars were sold with cassette decks
    We are a lot different than other ebay sellers of used cassette decks. We have been doing this for over 3 years with perfect results, using the same technician who has over 30 years experience in authorized repair. We specialize in only a couple models like this one, so we know all the intricate details of the unit and how to make it perfect. We back our decks with a 30 day guarantee to operate like new.
    WHY CASSETTES ? Like Vinyl records, they have a "niche"
    1. A lot of people are still driving cars from the 1990's to the 2010 year that still had factory cassette decks and have no plans on changing.
    2. Properly recorded, cassettes have a softer, more natural sound than CD and much better than MP3 cell phone streaming. This is assuming you have good speakers. Most systems suffer the most in speakers, especially in cars. For instance, even a stock car radio / cassette with a new set of high quality speakers and sub will make cassettes sound really good where you can easily hear their superior quality.
    3. Many people have a library of cassettes and do not wish to buy it all over again on CD.
    4. Many have special educational material on cassettes that is not available or very expensive to repurchase on CD.
    5. Many people wish to record a favorite vinyl record or radio program on cassette to listen later in their car
    WHY A REFURBISHED K-720 with AUTO-REVERSE
    This is a very well built heavy unit with all wear parts replaced. This unit should work just fine for another 20 years of normal usage.
    30 day unconditional guarantee (for buyers in the 48 contiguous U.S. states only).
    We are the only seller on Ebay who offers the Yamaha Cassette K-720 with AUTO-REVERSE-Professionally REFURBISHED, with a 90 day guarantee. The technician on this unit has done factory authorized Yamaha Service since the 1990's when these units came out. After you work on 100 of them, you get to know all the quirks and failure points to check.
    The playback frequency response and wow & flutter ratings on the K-720-AUTO-REVERSE are just as good as the audiophile KX-1200U. Using an A/B switch, I cannot hear any difference in playing either unit with the same tape.
    This unit has had the following:
    1. All belts replaced
    2. Idler roller replaced
    3. Bulbs replaced
    4. Lube all moving parts
    5. Set Playback azimuth, speed and bias levels for each tape type using Maxell UR for type I, TDK Pro IV for type II and Sony XR for Type IV (Metal)
    6. All functions/buttons on the device work, perfectly without any problems.
    Why take a chance on a non-refurbished unit only to end up paying more as soon as a part fails or paying for a tuneup ? Assuming you have the money to spare, this unit is worth every penny. Many cassette decks on ebay are over 40 years old, this unit was the last Yamaha made about 25 years ago and represent the pinnacle in design and manufacture, belts and bulbs are still available, why take a chance on an older unit?
