The volume on this Tape deck is extremely low. Basically the amp needs to be turned to almost full to hear the Tape. Also when recording with line-in it has the same problem, when recording the record volume is to max and the VU meters barely move. Any ideas? Thank you all.

First time it seems like a bit of a daunting task but it's not at all difficult. I'm assuming you're talking about the bulbs in the back of the tuner scale. Yes, you need to access it from the front. Take off all the knobs. Sometimes they are really hard to take off. I use a strong string...

You are correct. I just checked it, and no capstan. That would explain the speed control knob, lol.
