Nakamichi RX-505 Question


I'm not sure where to post this so I thought I would try this here. The above deck is auto reverse unidirectional model. Whether on play or record, the deck will at some point reverse itself without provocation. Annoying to say the least. Anyone have an idea what the problem would be?

Yes. It's time for the Nak Doc. I would venture to guess it would be a belt, too. A general tuneup would be nice to make sure all is well. This is a great sounding deck and worth spending the money on.
Retina,

It might not be a problem at all. Do you know about the auto reverse switch that is to the left of the cassette holder? It is a three position switch that allows for (a) single side play, then stop; (b) single side play, auto reverse, play then stop at the end, and (c) continuous play (i.e. flipping all the time at the end of the cassette).
I have the RX-202.
Let us know the outcome.
