One of my favorite bands of all time. I was just trying to find a demo of some top-loading cassette players, what a lovely surprise :) Thanks!

TEAC A4300 - Does this deck have speakers enclosed and produce sound from just the deck?

[@KKnockk]

No speakers, it is a component that hooks up to an amplifier or receiver, (That also has speakers connected to IT).

[@BonnsFinest]

Mine plays too slow and records too fast. How can i fix it? Maybe with the voltage regulator on its back?

[@KKnockk]

Cassette deck motors usually have an adjustor on or near the motor (mini pot).
Become a member of HiFi Engine, and then download the Service Manual:
www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/nakamichi/500-dual-tracer.shtml
It will show you where to find the adjustor, and how to do it.
