Wood case for Marantz 5020 cassette deck

[Chrisxo55441]

The WC-15T is the full cabinet version. A WC-153 is a three sided case. Since the first two numbers are the same, maybe the WC-153 will fit. I think I would rather have a three sided case since that is what I have on my receiver. If I can’t figure out the right number AND find one for sale, then it looks like a WC-22 is an option unless someone could build a WC-122

this thread lists the WC-153 as compatible with a 5030 which has a 5 3/4 faceplate the 5020 is 5 3/8 thats why i think that it might not fit.

Go ahead, call me a looney, but I think the proper case is required. Have to send some muscle to get Aaron on board with a WC-122 kit

I found this instruction sheet for the WC-122 in my 2238 owner’s manual.

i agree with above that the WC-116 is the 3 piece case that would fit, but i have never seen one and might not be that easy to find one

This link was for a WC-153, and a WC-116, which makes me think a receiver, and tape deck, WC kit:

There's one on eBay ATM that's really clean, but it's not the WC-116 3-piece case the OP wants.
