1977 TEAC A-106 Cassette Deck – Fully Serviced, Green-Glow VU Meters, Dolby B

Some decks just play tapes. This one has a story. 📼 Made in Japan in 1977 by TEAC, the Tokyo company behind legendary reel-to-reels and pro studio gear (TASCAM). Solid metal chassis, real analog VU meters with a warm green glow, and that classic late-’70s silver look. ✅ Fully serviced & calibrated: • New idler tires & belts • New pinch roller • Two transistors replaced (left-channel noise gone) • Speed, azimuth & levels calibrated 🎧 Features: • Dolby B noise reduction • Long-life ferrite head • Normal & CrO2 tape settings • DC servo motor for stable speed • Output level control, mic inputs, headphone jack • Backlit cassette window Cosmetics are excellent. It looks as good as it sounds, and it plays and records beautifully. ⚠️ Honest note: the Memory (counter stop) function doesn’t work. It’s a feature 95% of people never use, and most don’t even know it exists. Everything else works perfectly Why you’ll love it: real analog sound, a piece of hi-fi history on your shelf, and a deck ready for your mixtapes for years to come. 💲 $249 📍 Pickup in LA or shipping across the US In the video, the deck is playing music that was recorded on this same deck
