Never saw that movie. Of the earphones I've bought, only one needed significant cleaning. Installing new foam pads pretty well sanitizes them.
It's unfortunate most accessories for these players go missing over the decades. They got lost or broken or people who inherit them have no idea...
The Personal Hi-fi Blog describes using the Aiwa HS-J9 as a "time stamped voice recorder". It isn't clear if the device was ever developed....
The new link didn't work for me. Excellent work though.
I'm also currently working on a J9 with no sound output. This was bought and heavily used as a donor unit. It was extensively corroded, missing...
I was using a refurbished Aiwa HS-J600.
Of the cassettes only 3 were the old Ampex. Almost all the other cassettes were fine.
A half decent soldering iron is so inexpensive I feel like an idiot for not buying one sooner. Your diagram is the main power amplifier. It has...

Thanks for the guidance. The text with the light blue background is a list of 3-4 words saying which panels to pick on the puzzle. Such as:...
Ah, yes, the number of times I've worked on a tape drive problem because the Pause switch was engaged during testing... I'm currently working on...
New populated motor boards are available for some Aiwa models. Could you post a photo of yours?
Though I have used Superbuy to buy items from Goofish China, to ask a seller a question or specify a choice of item, I need to logon to Goofish....

I know on the models using the 2ME-7 mechanism, such as the J36/360/85/10/9/09/600 the motor reverses direction for reverse play and rewind.
I'm not sure how to navigate this Korean blog, but there are several contributors who post a lot of content about repairing Walkmen. Deja Vu in...
Replacement bare motor boards like this are being made in China. A lot of the Aiwa's that use this board mount it right next to the internal...
