NEC W-310 Rare Vintage 8-Track Cassette Karaoke Stereo System Fully Serviced
TechnoGold presents this distinctive NEC W-310, a vintage Japanese stereo system combining an 8-track cartridge player, cassette recorder, microphone mixer and built-in amplification. Its wood-effect cabinet, silver front panel and colourful controls make it a striking addition to any vintage audio collection.
A true rare gem of Japanese vintage audio, the NEC W-310 is very difficult to find, especially fully serviced and in perfect working order. Its unusual combination of functions and distinctive appearance make it a particularly appealing piece for collectors seeking something beyond conventional vintage components.
This unit has been fully inspected and serviced by our specialised technical department and is in perfect working order. Originally produced for the Japanese domestic market, it features Japanese control markings. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form part of the description and show the cosmetic condition of the actual unit offered.
The cassette section provides recording and playback, fast forward, rewind, pause and a mechanical tape counter. Its large front window provides a clear view of the cassette during operation, adding to the equipment’s distinctive visual appeal.
The separate 8-track cartridge player allows you to enjoy this classic tape format alongside conventional compact cassettes. Programme selection, karaoke controls and an adjustable tape-speed control provide additional flexibility.
The microphone mixing section features two channels with microphone and line inputs, individual volume controls and stereo pan adjustment. Adjustable BBD echo adds a characteristic vintage effect to vocals, making this system especially interesting for karaoke enthusiasts and collectors of unusual audio equipment.
Additional features include master volume, balance, bass and treble controls, left and right output-level indicators, and a headphone output with its own volume control. Rear speaker terminals, left and right line outputs and a stereo/mono selector allow integration into a suitable audio setup.
Among its more unusual features are a dedicated wireless-microphone control section with a telescopic antenna and a “Computer” mode with Save/Load selection and associated connections. These details give the W-310 a distinctive place among multifunction Japanese vintage audio systems.
This is an original Japanese 100 V AC, 50/60 Hz model, with a rated power consumption of 55 W.
