Hello all. A while back I acquired a Mitsubishi Interplay X-10 System including the wood cabinet with glass doors, but without speakers. It was purchased from flea bay and the seller listed it as "it works good now as it did back then". Well..... he lied.
The radio works good, minus dirty pots. However the turntable spins, the tonearm is listless. The cartridge and stylus are good. The cassette player is useless and the 'play' button is stuck half depressed.
Cosmetically the system is 9/10 due to the cabinets vinyl (faux wood) peeling in some spot.
I've had this thing sitting at my home unused while I researched info and remedies to fix it. So far I have not seen one that the tape deck works. Seems many have gotten the turntable to function.
Why are these tape decks unable to be repaired?
Can anyone steer me into the right direction towards who or where in Southern California I can take this for service?
Does anyone have any experience, stories, feedback, opinion or info regarding this equipment?
