Is there anyone in #Stockholm that knows a place in town where you can buy a decent second hand tape-casette player?

Asking for my cousin that wants to digitlize some old family recordings, so doesn't have to be something superspecial, but he just want to make sure its ok enough to not ruin the tapes...

Thanks!

My cousin will try for Daniels special trick!

And while Im at it, I inherited a Fostex X-15 Multitracker casette player from my dad. Some mechanism got stuck. Where do I best fix that in Sthlm?

I know I got the recommendation with Etervåg for my Sansui receiver (havent fixed it yet) Do they fix those kind of things as well?

I also have a Tandberg 1200X, that I havent tried yet, so don't know the condition but probably need some repairs as well.

@Johan_E_M @johnchantler @scott I like Etervåg. I have gotten cassette players and reel-reels fixed there.

@Johan_E_M @johnchantler @scott I go to all of the second hand places all of the time. The trick is to try the cassette player right there at the place. I bring a little bag which has a tape of music that I know well and all of the cables I need to try it with headphones.

https://www.referenceaudio.se/kategori/996/stereo-3 Has one currently but that's an audiophile store so not even their used are cheap. But on the plus side they might buy it back when he's done.

@aanee @Johan_E_M @t36s @scott Nakamichi is Rolls-Royce of tape players ! I have a much less prestigious cassette player you could borrow if its just for a temporary thing like you describe, but I am deep in work backlog for the next few weeks...
