In Reply to: Teac Decks posted by PanzerVI on January 13, 2007 at 15:53:06:
Nowadays it is very hard to find a tape deck on ebay that does not require some kind of service(s) before one can really think that it will not break down anytime. If one has a great deck that performs flawlessly do you think he/she will sell it. It is up to the seller(s) to disclose to the potential buyer how many problem(s) the deck actually has. Tandberg cassette deck is very expensive and time consuming to service and there is not that many places in the States that can fix them. If you are really interested in the TEAC cassette deck try to find a good C-3X and the Z-5000/6000/7000. You won't be disappointed with any one of these. The C-3X and C-3RX are frequently seen in ebay and cheap and parts are still available from TEAC U.S.A. However, the Z-5000/6000/7000 are hard to find and very expensive. In top form they will beat most of the high-end Nakamichi decks. Those TEAC you mentioned in your original messages are not worth to invest in, unfortunately.
Hope this help,
Mike
