After so many years I am finally back playing cassette tapes! Being an ex JVC employee, and almost retired I figured I could satisfy my nostalgia and at the same time find an extra hobby by buying a cassete deck. I intended to find a TD-V1050TN (which I couldn't afford back when I worked for JVC), but since these are rarer than hen's teeth, I settled for a nice TD-V1010TN. And a nice one it is : externally it looks like new and everything works well, although it's a pity that aligning the deck on a particular type of tape needs to be done by ear. Without aligning the deck the BASF ChromeSuper cassette did not sound too bad, but far from CD quality (quick and dirty test yesterday...). Perhaps I need to record at a bit higher level too.
Now here is the question : the deck came without its IR remote control, which apparently is also very rare. Any chance that another JVC remote control will work on this deck? Does anyone know of a compatible remote control perhaps?
Thanks a bunch in advance!
