Nakamichi CR 2E

Opening up my Nakamichi CR-2E cassette deck.
Yup, it's a Worm Gear and NOT a Spiral Gear. Sorry about that.

I just finished doing work on the CR1A - my first time calibrating a machine. I got it so i can drop any TDK D/SA/MA to record and it sounds pretty darn good. i suggest getting the Nak T100 audio Analyzer - it's all you'll really need except for a VTVM to measure the voltage.

Sir, Big fan. Shoutout dedo

[@SDsailor7]

Very nice deck. Going to look at one tomorrow, maybe i will buy it if it is in good working order.

[@puppypaws937]

Nope.

[@tarunsangeet6816]

Did you ??

[@tarunsangeet6816]

Great 👍🏻

[@SDsailor7]

Does the 1A come with outside bias adjustment? Anyone know? Thank you

[@tarunsangeet6816]

No.

[@phaenius]

Why the VU LEDs flicker?

[@puppypaws937]

Something to do with the refresh rate of AC current that is 50 Hz and the rate at which the camera shoots PAL, also at 50 fps. The LEDs don’t flicker in reality , just an illusion

[@phaenius]

@@puppypaws937 But LEDs aren't driven by direct current?

[@babubaba8885]

@@phaenius Maybe it had something to do with the camera?? I have filmed cars using an iPhone and the LED daytime running lights appear to flicker when in reality they don't flicker. Maybe this is somewhat the same. No idea whether or not LED lights work on DC in this deck - probably they do.

[@tarunsangeet6816]

@@puppypaws937 Ya, LED lights don't flicker at all. Camera effect.

Poorly explained 😕

[@theodorblasius5358]

you need to select zx iv for metal position not ex1 normal

[@CasioGreg]

the tape selectors don't work in playback.... only for recording. the only thing to adjust is the EQ - 70 or 120. for Cr02-Metal or Ferric oxide/type 1
