Nakamich RX-505 Question

It is the beginning of the end. My old RX 505 did that before it completely died. I got an estimate to fix it and was too much to fix, more than it is worth. You could contact Stephen Sank at Bk11@thuntek.net he may be able to help.

Mark,

Soundhouse is right about your RX-505 being on it's last legs. However, you can have it gone through by a reliable
Nak expert. His name is Willy Hermann. You can contact him at willy@willyhermannservices.com. Believe me, he will have
it working and sounding better than new. By coincidence,
I'm listening to my RX-505 through my tube Stax headphones
and I can assure you that the RX-505 is worth the expense.
Willy rebuilt my CR-7A and this RX-505, and he now has my ZX-9 in for a tune-up. He'll do it right. Tell him I sent you! You won't regret it.

Willy is good. It would probably cost you at least $250 plus shipping both ways but you should ask him if you are thinking about fixing it.
I use my Nak 682ZX on almost a daily basis. I like tape.

Thanks for the responses guys. I guess I'm more interested in selling it then than fixing it. I love tape also and listen to 15 ips 2 track tapes on a professional mastering deck.

The deck is in beautiful shape and plays great, it just won't flip sides.
