Welcome back to the restoration journey of the Nakamichi 681zx! In this episode, we're delving into the critical step of checking the performance of our cassette deck after replacing the idler.

The idler, a crucial part of the tape transport system, is often subject to wear and tear over time. A worn-out idler can impact the smooth functioning of the tape transport, affecting the quality of the playback and recording.

Having recently replaced the idler in our Nakamichi 681zx, we now need to ensure it's doing its job properly. Enter the torque test cassette - a special tool designed to measure the torque of the tape transport mechanism.

Join us as we carry out this test, interpreting the results and discussing their implications for the performance of our restored Nakamichi 681zx. This video offers a unique insight into the technical aspects of cassette deck restoration, providing a first-hand view of the testing and calibration processes involved.

Whether you're a vintage audio enthusiast, a Nakamichi fan, or simply curious about electronics, this video is a great resource for learning about the practical side of cassette deck restoration.
