    my name is Rene, from 1985 to 1999 I used to repair in and out of warranty cassette decks and walkmans for Kenwood, Yamaha , Pioneer, Sanyo and other brands and with the current increasing interest in analog audio, and cassette decks in particular, I started this channel to share tips and tricks that I have picked up over the years.
    I will mostly do 'end-to-end' video's about repairing, servicing and adjusting the deck from beginning to end with a lot of talking , showing , tips etc and very little editing.
    If you have any questions or particular video's you would like to see just reach out and maybe I can assist ?

    I rescued a low hour Technics RS B404 last year. Looks a lot like you're B555. The head was oxidized a lot. Polished the head but the high tones are not perfect anymore. Very good serviceable deck. Did not need any new belts. In the beginning the buttons worked a little bit funny like your's. If I can find a new head this will improve the sound. Thanks for you're video 👍

    Bought it 1991. Top of the models in that time. Have it stil. Works very vell. For recording you have to chose source (CD, radio) in the amplifier from which you will be recording.

    Very helpful video, thanks! This model has other issues (cracked cog wheel, bad el.caps on DD board), but once taken care of, it's a great machine, although it has a bit of a clunky sounding transport. There , now you have 200 subscribers ;-)

      @@cassettedeck-walkman-repair If the caps on the DD board are bad, there will be a clicking noise coming from the transport even in STOP mode. It's usually easy to hear, especially if you open the door and put your ear to the opening. Another thing with this deck: It will always use 3-4 watt of power even if it's turned off but still connected to the mains. I still like the deck though :)
