Problems with your Nak? Need adjustment and calibration?

B&W in the UK is not taking you precious deck? Too expensive? I am here to help!

If you live in Europe, I can have your Nakakamichi deck electronically adjusted and calibrated and possibly upgraded, - depending on the model - for little money, provided it is in good mechanical condition, as spares are really hard to find. I can demagnetize, clean, lubricate and calibrate to perfect condition, with original Nakamichi alignment tapes and gauges, and proper testing gear. Please take a look at some repairs we have already done in these pages.

I can upgrade bad orange caps with audio-grade metallized polypropylene caps, upgrade DC rails with new IC-regulators, shorten signal paths, install new hi-performance low noise operational amplifiers (NE5532 or OP275 - you choose !), replace noisy zenners diodes, rectifier diodes and re-cap power supplies, among others. You will not believe your ears !

This is some of the test equipment available in my bench:

Dare to do it yourself? Good! Get yourself a copy of the service manual, easily available from ebay, or some other websites, and a set of alignment tapes. Can’t find them? Need Calibration Tapes?

Don’t forget to take a look at my calibration tutorial !
