Please go through the Feedback on various Nakamichi Cassette recorders that I sold ( many of them CR 7A)
If you are keen on brand new unused CR 7A with box/Remote/User Manuals please contact me First - this Recorder is not just working but working correctly as it should ( I keep seeing listing stating as working Deck without any explanation?)
The reason for stating the above -
It was serviced for correct Supply Voltage
for Correct Head alignment - Height/Tilt and Azimuth both for Record and Play
All these were done by individual Nakamichi Gauges ( 3 gauges). Then Comes Head Track alignment using Nak Track alignment Tape
Next step is setting 400 Hz level on each channel using again another Nakamichi Alignment Tape
Play head also needs azimuth alignment using 15 Khz azimuth Tape from Nakamichi
again 3 Alignment Tape
Not to forget Play Torque Gauge for proper tape pull
CR 7A needs complete adjustment using special Electronic tool for Correct Bias for each type of Tape / DA converter adjustment and Azimuth adjust knob alignment. There are close to 25 steps to align this deck to make it work as it should including each tape type record replay response for 400Hz/15 Khz
Considering the Digital Multi Meter should have close to 200 Khz response ( not just any DMM)
I use 2 Fluke 867B along with VTVM having still higher bandwidth.
Using the Play head azimuth, Record head current for each tape type as well as Azimuth / track alignment needed to set it up for Recording alignment. If these were done correctly along with internal Pot adjustment, Autocalibration will result in Precise Response
If you had the patience to read these verbiage, you would realize what it means to service Nakamichi Cassette Recorder particularly CR 7A , Dragon or 1000ZXL
Since I keep seeing certain Electrolytic Caps failing in CR 7A/5A - I make sure to replace them with new along with other Power Supply Capacitors. So this Deck has preventive measures for Electronic Failures
Need I say more? The reasonable Price reflects the amount of effort taken and not just making it as working CR 7A
Finally I only offer Deck with new Belts and checking record replay response ( if you wish I can send the AP Analyzer ( Sys II) output with the Deck
Finally - it will come with brand new Metal Tape - just calibrated and sample recording as reference to the buyer. Also a printed user manual. Buyer can just plug and test
If you like to ask questions, please do without hesitation - you will get a response
