You must be kidding me. What can I say, I don't think I've EVER seen a project quite like this. People build ass sorts of stuff but this is out of left field. Nice work!

I'm gonna give some honest feedback here, I like the LED mod, hell, it could even be done with incandescent/filament bulbs for older decks if you like the yellow-ish color they give off, but I don't like the speaker mod, because you'll likely be using the deck as a component so the need for the built-in speakers is unnecessary, but all around you did a good job with it.

[@Amberstargazerofearth]

I agree

[@EU43-068]

At first I was convinced you were going to kill that deck. Then I thought, well what the hell. That's all an aged 165 is worth (later I noticed that it was actually a 157). My final conclusion is: good job. Nice of you to have extended its life. PS. I simply adore the background noises, especially the chickeeeen :)

[@rich_edwards79]

I like the LED mod, though I'd have probably used warm white to maintain the oldschool look, as back in the day they'd have used little incandescent bulbs due to LED lighting being in its infancy. But cool as it was to see you 3-D print your own speaker enclosures, volume dial and trim rings, I think I'd have left the cabinet alone. Still, enjoyed watching the process.

[@Frankonero12]

Yeah, i like the led mod too. Would be even nicer (imo) if the lights went on and off with the power switch instead of the capstan motor.

[@kalledisco]

You could use a different colour maybe. I think i will try red LEDs in my tapedeck.

Hello. Congratulations on your videos, they are really interesting. I tried to do some work on cassette decks: only I have difficulty inserting LED lights: in a couple of devices every time I inserted the LED lights connected to the motor, it worked faster. Can you tell me how to do a good job and the exact resistors I should use? Thank you Vittorio from Italy

how to trash a perfectly good tape deck

[@danieldaniels7571]

Exactly.

[@robertblumpkin4759]

Awesome idea! If I were you, I'd of used a better amp board with treble and bass control. Simply cause you took the time to make good enclosure's, and cassette's sound muffled. Also Technics shoulda did that idea with the LED's that really bumpped up the look to it. Over all I give you "2 stars" LOL just kiding.... 10+!! Keep making stuff.

[@RWL2012]

cassettes can sound muffled if they're not looked after and the equipment they're played on is not in good working order, but obviously they don't normally.

[@CoolDudeClem]

Surprised you didn't just trash this thing entirely by getting rid of the cassette compartments and replacing them with stupid bluetooth or mp3.

[@RealEpikCartfrenYT]

People who replace cassette players in their boomboxes with Bluetooth make me cringe. This guy certainly would never do that, but I still don't agree with him putting built in speakers into the deck as it was never meant to be standalone, but rather a part of a hifi rack.

Ok, coming from someone who fixes cassette players as a hobby, dont fucking do this, its completely moronic, ruins the case of the deck, irreversible, and speakers you can never turn off, the leds i *guess* are ok since they arent as pronounced as the speakers, also adding all these irreversible mods to the deck really just ruins the unit, nobody would go on ebay looking for this thing

kinda ranting but this is just so terrible

[@danieldaniels7571]

@@xjmczar it’s still a really decent one, which are getting harder to find in good working condition. Desoldering the speakers won’t fix the gaping holes he put in the top of the deck.

Can the recording input be used as an aux input for the amplifier?

[@TE.]

No, the output can only be used to connect to the amplifier

[@Simone-qr6mq]

@@TE. The tape deck has 4 RCA plugs, 2 of which are used for the Line Out. The other ones are normally used as Rec In, so that you can record an audio signal onto an audio cassette. My question was about using that Recording Input as a Line Input for a Cd player/Bluetooth receiver, even if there is not any audio cassette to record the signal on when the external device is playing. Being able to do so would make it a nice vintage-looking all-in-one system.
