Sony TCD - D7 DAT Walkman

You are bidding for a Sony TCD-D7 portable DAT Walkman

This item has been fully serviced by myself 

It has been stripped and lubricated with a combination of light precision oil and ceramic grease (where applicable) on the top and bottom side gearboxes including a reset of the timing. I have also tightened both grub screws on the loading arms which prevents the adjustment posts on the in and out tape guide adjusting on their own 
The super capacitor has also been changed

I have tested the recording and playback functionality and it works well. I have recorded a whole album with no issues at all. 

Fast forward, rewind and indexing searching (forwards and backwards) are working perfectly

It also loads tapes quickly 

The backlight is also working

The unit is cosmetically in very good condition - there are a small number of marks on the casing - these are visible on the photos

The unit will be supplied with a new tape with some music recorded onto it to demonstrate that it records and plays back fine

Also supplied with a generic power supply and battery caddy

Its worth bearing in mind that the tracking has been set to the DAT tapes I have recorded here, if your tapes are recorded on machines with tracking set differently then you may need to adjust the tracking on this machine to suit your tapes

It is also recommended not to use extremely long DDS tapes as the tape is usually very thin which can cause issues on these units
