    Teac AX-505

    I am looking at a Teac AX-505 which is supposed to be 130wpc but it is tiny. Could it really power my Bose 901s in a large room, about 400 square feet? Are all 130 wpc amps created equal. The Teacs size fits my decor needs and I have a similar 50wpc Teac that sounds great. But I don't want to...

    Help: TEAC 35-2B

    Hi all, I’m hoping someone out there can help me. I’m on the lookout for some parts for my Teac 35-2B. At some point in its life, the 4T head was removed, along with its holder. This deck has a somewhat unique head mounting system. By any chance, does anyone have a parts machine or know where...

    Teac X-1000R Streetside Find

    I managed to pick up an intact TEAC X-1000R that was discarded at the curb after a neighbor texted me a picture of it - It was quite dirty and obviously stored in sub par conditions. I've never had a reel to reel before and don't know anyone that does , but I'm guessing that I'm quite...

    Recommended cap list for a 4010s Teac?

    My Teac 4010s is working fine but I spot checked a couple of the PIO Suzuki caps and see they are reading at less than half the listed uF values. And those seem to be prone to total failure. I bought this machine back in 1969 and haven't touched any electronics. For sure I need to replace...
