It has outstanding playback quality. (And records beautifully as well) Take it to a qualified technician to get it going again. It is probably just needs new belts. If it is still in NOS condition, it is worth three to four thousand dollars.
@@KKnockk I took it here in our area to fix it but they cannot fix it or they do not know how to fix it. Willy Herman in California asking for $700 dollars to fix it. I cannot afford that.
Willy Hermann Services is 2600 miles from me. I am sure that you can find someone else to give it the once over twice. Find a repair shop that can do cassette decks. Just a change of belts and tires should be less than $200. (Unless the pinch roller is also gummy from age) For $700 is he doing a complete cap change, re-alignment?
I think that you need to just call around to electronics repair shops. Tell them what make/model you have, and ask if they have any technicians that have been around for 35+ years. (At the least, they might have some exposure to high end cassette decks)
I was digging through "the pile" the other day, and came up with an LX 5. Are you till in the market for a Nakamichi cassette deck? Should I push on towards getting this deck ready for sale (clean/test/demag...)?
My ZX-9 power on but nothing happen anymore. I bought it brand new in the 80s I still have it here inside the box.

@@KKnockk I took it to a repair shop here in my area and the
technician returned it to me. He said that he cannot fix it and very complicated machine.

Where in Louisiana can I get service and/or repairs done for cassette decks?
Zx 9 is a great DECK
Mine is not great anymore.
@@JasperAsher-lv1yg why?
ZX-9 vs CR-7a?
Where can I get one repaired or re belted in the NY area?
probably ESL labs in ct
@@JohnDoe-np3zk thanks keep up the good work
Do you ever sell any of these units?
It was not mine to sell. Sorry.
