    CT-F1000

    I have a problem - picked up a CT-F1000, and upon closer inspection discovered that the spring-loaded spindle caps (the best I can describe them) are missing. The sleeves must have cracked (at least the one on the right has a hairline crack) and the spring and the cap popped off...:rant: I...

    Need help figuring out how I screwed up playback on CT-F1000

    I've managed to screw up the playback on my CT-F1000 and I'm looking for insight as to what is wrong and how to fix it. Symptom: Press play, head engages, but right-hand tape spindle doesn't turn causing tape to bunch up. I've determined that the idler wheel isn't quite engaging between the...

One of my goals in Pioneer collecting was to have the opportunity to own both a SPEC-2 & SPEC-4 setup at the same time, and that goal has been met!

    Thomas Possche and Tape Deck repair DVD's

    I understand that Mr Possche passed away a few years ago. Is there a source for his repair DVD's on the Pioneer RT909 and CT-F series cassette decks? The abridged versions are still on YouTube.

    Oddity in a recently restored CT-F1000

    I recently landed another sample of this classic deck (in good shape) and went through the usual restoration processes. It's been finished and working fine in my "vintage" system for about six months. (All period Pioneer gear.) But I've noticed that when I switch into play (or record) there's...
