Nakamichi LX-5 Cassette Deck - May be for sale
« on: May 26, 2014, 11:14:01 AM »
Picked up this LX-5 at the swap meet Saturday and basically spent all of Sunday tweaking it.  New front plate plastic (the original stuff was in dire shape,  sourced replacements from an LX3 parts unit), replaced three caps,  cleaned the controls.  Makes great CrO2 recordings.  If someone in the forum is interested, PM me. I have the $ I paid for it plus several hours of work and parts.   It sounds great but if I were to keep it I would swap out all the orange caps regardless of condition.  This is a great three head deck with the decent earlier Nak transport (not the Sankyo maintenance pain of later years).   I have too many decks - muy fun comes from fixing them up.  Thought I should offer it here before putting it up anywhere else.
