Sorry if this a bit off topic, still about audio, I was given a very rare portable cassette player today by a relative, the real owner has passed away a few years ago. It's a National Matsu****a WAY Stereo Cassette Player, with external power supply system, original headphone ( broken sadly ) and an original belt clip attachment.
It's working, the LED lights on, when I plugged in my headphone, and move around the volume, I can hear noises. But when I inserted a cassette, even if I press play, forward or rewind I can only hear motor noise, but the cog won't turn at all. It uses depressed cog system to rewind or fast forward, when I open the tray and depressed it manually, I can only hear motor noise, but no turning, the same happens when I press play. So, could it be the belt ?
I am bit worried about opening it up, it has lots of mini screws and too old
If this is inappropriate, I'll open a new thread
It's in pristine condition, even the buttons and battery compartment looks like new.
