ü Our technician has completely and EXTENSIVELY gone through and 'Certified' this unit which involves complete removal and disassembly of the entire transport (not an easy task on this deck), cleaning inside and out, DISASSEMBLING, cleaning and re-lubricating all internal mechanisms and the balance of efforts listed below.

ü Heads inspected for excessive wear (obviously we do this 'early on' as 'excessive' wear will usually negate any further restoration work).

ü Head rotating gear inspected with a jewelers loop prior to starting any restoration work, and found to be 'hairline' crack free.

ü Capstan motor spindle bushing re-lubed

ü Capstan burnished

ü Internal 23VDC power supply tested to 23.2Volts

ü 2X NEW, 'reel drive' tires installed for years of trouble-free service. (These are actually much more important to replace on this deck (and most) than the belts. Without these, the deck won't fast wind very well, and will likely 'eat tapes' as the 'take-up' reel won't turn properly)

ü New Main Drive and Counter belts installed for trouble-free service.

ü Rubber pinch rollers have been reconditioned

ü Both Flywheel 'belt surfaces' solvent cleaned

ü Bronze Flywheel bushings solvent cleaned

ü Both Flywheel thrust pads cleaned

ü Entire flywheel assemblies re-lubed upon re-assembly

ü Head rotating mechanism's movement was slightly impeded by 'old lube' (as expected), and was cleaned and re-lubed.

ü Heads have been cleaned and de-magnetized as well as the entire transport.

ü Head alignments and azimuth at both 1kHz and 10kHz adjusted for BOTH directions for 'peak performance' with O-Scope

ü All internal pots, switches and controls cleaned and tested for noise-free function.

ü FF, REW, & Play transport functions all test perfectly and controls tested for 'positive / accurate' responsive.

ü 'Silicone Damped' Eject door operates smoothly.

ü Tape Counter Function tested

ü Dolby NR circuits / function tested

ü 'Memory / Zero Return' function tested

ü Heads are in great condition

ü Internal playback levels adjusted for even playback w/ alignment tape, Oscilloscope, and mVAC meter

ü Playback meters adjusted for 'playback' zero'd with factory test tone tape.

ü Internal Record amplifier channels adjusted for 'even output'

ü Pinch roller and heads all in GREAT condition!!!

ü Overall floor noise measured at >-60dB.

üSpeed adjusted internally to 100% accuracy BOTH directions, with 1kHz factory calibration tape and frequency counter (meaning 1kHz calibration tape plays back at 1000Hz +/- 1Hz)

ü Cosmetically, the deck and the 'wood grain wrapped' case / cabinet looks NEAR NEW!

ü Plays great and after adjustment, records AMAZINGLY well w/ following results;

> With Pink Noise recorded @ -5dB w/o Dolby engaged PB @ -1dB & @ -10dB w/o Dolby engaged PB @ 0dB on Maxell UDXL-II / High Bias tapes

> With 1kHz recorded at 0dB with Dolby engaged on Maxell UR (normal bias) & Maxell XL-II (high bias) tapes PB @ 0dB

> With 10kHz recorded at 0dB with Dolby engaged on Maxell XL-II (High bias) tapes plays back @ -6dB

With 'ddd' CD recorded at 0dB with Dolby engaged; 0 to -1dB on Maxell UDXL-II / High Bias tapes

Bottom line is this deck sounds amazing for playback or recording (always make sure you're playing back 'good quality' tape recordings)
Total technician time to restore 10.5+ HOURS!
____________________________

The Teac CX-650R, Auto-Reverse with 'Bi-Directional Recording', Stereo Cassette Tape Deck. Great deck for doing your tape transfers if your tapes were recorded with no NR or with "Dolby B" or for making some awesome 'new' recordings or 'mix tapes' (hey, it's 'the thing' again). This deck is a pleasure to use, and has a great 'feel' due to it's size and transport function. As far as cosmetics, it's BEAUTIFUL. Was taken very good care of before it came to us, and is even more astounding now. The deck and the wood grain case could convince you that time had rolled back almost 40 years, and you were seeing it at the original store's retail display.

Teac CX-650R Features include:
  
- Heavy duty transport featuring 'oversized' capstan motor, and VERY large, 'asymmetrical' flywheels
- Triple-Mode Auto-Reverse, with 'Bi-Directional' Recording (not just 'A' side recording!)
-  "Soft touch-control" tape transport
- Selector for Normal (EX / I), CrO2 (SX / II) & Metal (ZX / IV) Tape Type
- 3-Position Selector for Tape Equalization for Normal (EX / I), CrO2 (SX / II) & Metal (ZX / IV) Tape Type on playback
- Dual Analog VU Level Meters
- Analog counter 
- Built-in MPX filter for killing the 19kHz pilot tone in FM transmissions
- Variable Output Level control (one of the most important features on a deck in our opinion)
- Dolby B NR
- Record Muting
- 'Auto-Space' records a 4-second space prior to 'stop' when engaged.
- Real 'Potentiometer' Record level controls that are 'gear coupled' (meaning when you turn one, the other one responds as well. They can be turned independently for 'fine adjustment' as they're 'clutch coupled' as well)
- Memory Stop / Repeat for counter
- Dual, Front mounted, 1/4", Microphone Jacks
- Front mounted, 1/4", Stereo Headphone jack
- Timer Play / Record function.
- Multi-pin port on rear panel for optional wired remote, TEAC RC-100 (remote not included)

Again, we have completely cleaned, refurbished / serviced and thoroughly tested this Teac CX-650R cassette tape deck.
Great for transferring your no NR or Dolby B NR encoded tape collection to CD, Hard-drive or MP3 especially with the 'Tape EQ' selector for 'fine tuning' older tapes. Built very well! Looks like new, works perfectly and sounds fabulous. Due to it's size, overall feel, the 'input controls' and the 'transport control' this deck really is a blast to use. Comes with an 'e-copy / pdf download' of the TEAC CX-650R cassette tape deck owners / users / instruction manual. Measures 18.5" wide x 13.5" deep x 7" tall and weighs a VERY HEAVY 26 lbs unpacked. Just in-case you 'too casually' read past that last little bit,
IT'S A TWENTY-SIX POUND CASSETTE DECK!
Includes our standard 90 day limited warranty.

This pair is also THE CLEANEST, most 'issue-free' pair we've had! In fact, just had a fresh, professional re-veneer in beautiful walnut wood grain veneer, then rubbed with lemon oil. Grills and grill frames in great condition. All grill locating pins intact and functioning. No breaks, cat stains, tears, rips or snags to the original grill cloth. Very importantly, NONE of the very common 'midrange wrinkling' that for some reason happens to about 50% of the HPM-100's we see.

BUFFET CLARINET
MODEL B12
INTERMEDIATE STUDENT Bb CLARINET
for sale
This clarinet is modeled after the Famous Buffet Grenadilla wood clarinets from the 'old day's'. When I worked for a 'full-line' music store thru the 1990's, we would periodically have a 'vintage' Buffet come thru and they never hung around long once serviced for re-sale. It is what most clarinet players asked for. That and Yamaha's.  This is a Buffet B12 clarinet, again, designed after the 'vintage' horns for the student / beginner and into the intermediate market. The Buffet B12 clarinets are made from ABS resin with an appearance and sound similar to that of genuine Grenadilla wood. These models are lightweight, strong and easy to clean perfect for even very young players. The Buffet B12 model has a very attractive and traditional design with nickel-plated body rings, straight key work and a traditional bell ring. The body is buffed to give the appearance of wood. The nickel silver key work is cold forged and induction soldered, providing greater stability, precision and quality. The B12 model is mounted with double fish skin pads which ensure excellent sealing.

 Features:
- Nickel plated keys, body rings & plated bell rings
- 65mm barrel
- 14.65mm poly-cylindrical bore
- Arched key cups (same as R-13 model)
- Staggered trill keys (same as R-13 model)
- Blue Needle Springs
- Adjustable 3-position thumb rest
- Ergonomic key design: Improved playing comfort like that of a professional clarinet
- Pointed needle springs for quality key action
- Undercut tone holes for improved tone quality and faster response
- High quality Double fish skin pads enables air tightness and are long lasting
- Blow-molded, hard shell case

Mouthpiece Assembly with Ligature, Cap and Mouthpiece

-           Cork Grease

-           Cleaning Swab

This clarinet retails for $925.00 (US).

VINTAGE KENWOOD SPEAKERS
KENWOOD KL-888D / KL888D SPEAKERS
#...1030 / 1680
 Circa 1976-78
 Made in Japan
for sale
 Classic lattice grill, vintage & large Kenwood KL-888D stereo speakers. 5-Way, 6-Speaker / Driver, Bass Reflex cabinet design. These are VERY efficient speakers with above average tone balance for late '70's speakers. Plenty of top end that can be filtered / tailored to your tastes with built-in attenuator or external EQ / tone control. Also HUGE & tight low end, likely due to the "Air-Suspension" cabinet design.
Our speaker tech has completely gone through and 'Certified' these. Speakers were entirely disassembled. Crossover components and internal circuit boards were inspected for any possible 'sympathetic' component vibrations. Attenuators were removed and cleaned for static free operation. Our tech has completely tested all drivers, then re-assembled with their original and adequate gasketing material under all driver frames to further reduce any possibilities of vibration or acoustic anomalies, and tested with both recorded material, PN and swept them with our AF generator from 20-3kHz. Following, of course our normal barrage of 'pink noise' and an AF sweep from 3k down to 20Hz, our demo cuts ran the gamut from Dire Straits, 'Brothers in Arms', TLC 'Fan Mail', Allison Kraus and Union Station, Nickelback, a digital recording of a cathedral pipe organ, our 'Usher Speaker' demo CD (no not that Usher), 'Friday Night in San Francisco', with Al Dimeola, John McLaughlin and Paco DeLucia, Nickel Creek's Why Should the Fire Die, Jennifer Warnes, 'Famous Blue Raincoat', and a few others, all digitally recorded and some 'DDD'.
 Incredible power handling characteristics. They are able to handle "power" better MUCH than your average speaker. Not simply referring to they're wattage rating, but just the way the perform at higher power / volume levels without "falling apart" sonically. We 'stood' on them HARD with our test Hafler 500 watt power amp.
They also seem to be able to handle "power" better than your average speaker. Not simply referring to they're wattage rating, but just the way the perform at higher power / volume levels without "falling apart" sonically. Among the top performers of the many speakers we have auditioned over the years. Unfortunately, these are missing their grills. 
   Features: 
    
 - 16" Non-deteriorating Cloth surround Woofer
 - 6.5" Non-deteriorating, paper surround Mid
 - 6.25" x 2" Horn, Upper Midrange with Compression increasing Phase Plug
 - Dual 2.25" Radial Horn Tweeters with Phase Plugs to increase compression
 - 1.25", Mylar Cone, Radial Super Tweeter
 - "Real" internal cross-over, not just a couple of "caps" on the mids and tweets
 - 3-position Hi frequency attenuators, using resistors, not failure prone Ni-Chrome wire, for custom tailoring sound to your tastes and listening room
- Dual 2.25" Tuned ports for extended low end
 - Vented / cloth woofer dust cap for increasing low end efficiency 
   
 Specs:
 
 Frequency Response: 25-22,000Hz +- 3dB
 Efficiency: 98dB 1w @ 1m
 Nominal Impedance: 8Ω
 Cross-over frequencies: 700Hz, 2kHz, 5kHz and 10kHz
 Recommended Nominal Power Amplifier range: 10-200 Watts
 Recommended MAX Power rating: 150 Watts
  
   Very nice looking wood grain, vinyl wrap cabinets. Again, these speakers are sans grills. The cabinets are in excellent shape. Our speaker tech has completely checked these speakers inside and out. Loose inputs tightened. 2 corner joints re-glued / clamped. Attenuators removed and all positions cleaned. As with all of our speakers have completely tested these w/ AF sweep, PN and our standard barrage of test recordings looking for any acoustical anomalies, extraneous noises or sounds and to judge overall sound quality with our Hafler test power amp. All drivers are in perfect condition, work and sound fine!
 Speakers look and sound GREAT! Huge, accurate and loud sound, but also very efficient at lower powers due to their 98dB rating! If you're looking for a great performing speaker at medium to higher volume applications, you will not be disappointed with these speakers. Each measures 26" tall x 17.5" wide x 12" deep and weighs 54 lbs unpacked. Includes our standard limited speaker warranty ( & excluding problems due to under / over powering)

A bit short in the looks department, but long on sound.

AND WHEN PURCHASED FROM OAK TREE VINTAGE WITH A NEW, DIAMOND CARTRIDGE NOW INCLUDED
NEW
for sale
Professional DJ / Club table. Quality tool for the 'long haul'! The Audio-Technica AT-LP1240-USB DJ turntable. Similar in design to some of the vintage turntable models, such as the Kenwood KD-550 'concrete base', the Sony PS-T1, and the Technics SL-1500, SL-1600MK2 or SL-D2 turntable models. This professional stereo turntable features a super high-torque, direct-drive motor for quick start-ups yet is perfectly quiet. Classic 'S' shaped tone arm with 'universal' head-shell that allows mounting of most any 'quality', 1/2' cartridge, either MM (moving magnet) or MC (moving coil). Tone-arm mounted in high quality 4-point, Gimbol bearing.

The AT-LP1240-USB plays back 33-1/3, 45 and 78 RPM records (78 is selected by pressing both 'speed' select buttons simultaneously). Its built-in phono preamp enables the turntable to be connected to a wide variety of music and home entertainment systems, powered speakers, and to A/V receivers that do not include a dedicated phono input (de-featable for 'old schooool' and 'REAL' receivers and integrated amplifiers that 'DO' have a built-in phono pre-amp. The turntable includes PC- and Mac-compatible Audacity® software that converts the audio on a record to MP3, WAV or other format digital audio files.

NEW UPDATE--- We're now including the Audio-Technica AT-95E, MM, Elliptically cut diamond cartridge with tables purchased from us at Oak Tree Vintage.

Table has great mass at almost 30 lbs!

If you have a 'REAL receiver', ie, an old-school, vintage, 2-channel receiver or integrated amp or pre-amp with a phono pre built-in, then you can flip a switch and bypass the 'built-in' phono preamp.
- USB output—connects directly to your computer for plug-&-play use
- Forward or reverse play (this is a DJ feature, and if you value your vinyl or cartridge, DON'T USE 'Reverse'! If you have a crappy cartridge and are playing 'Frisbees', then 'go for it' if you're so inclined!

Pre-Recorded, 1/4" X 7" (18cm), Realistic / Radio Shack, 'CONCERTape', 1800 ft reel to reel tape.
Great tape for general purpose recording.
These are 1800' / 548.6 meters and 1.0 MIL thick, and include individual, boxes with a plastic reel. More than enough length for most LP's at 7.5ips (fast, consumer speed) for 90 minutes combined sides (180 minutes at 3.75ips). According to an original catalog, "1-Mil base of heavy-duty Polyester resists breaking and stretching while giving you extra-wide response.""   Will work on any 'head format', meaning 'quarter track', 'half-track', 'full-track', '4-track / '8-track' / 'multi-track', stereo or mono tape recorders / decks. Reels are 'light gray' plastic. Leaderless tape.
We have actually found that 'Normal' bias tape works best on the older decks such as the pre 1980 Akai's, Concertone's, Craigs, Crowns, Grundigs, Kenwoods, Pioneers, Realistics, Sansui's, Sony TC's, Tandbergs, Teacs, Telefunkens, etc. We have gotten some fine recordings using this tape, and due to the extreme 'retention' of high bias tape some times it is difficult to erase. These always seem to erase fine.
 Most are at least 1800 feet and some with leaders intact and may or may not include individual box (often do). Most have been used and will have recordings on them. Boxes and / or reels may have extraneous labels and / or marking on them. Reels may have blemishes / nicotine staining / dust etc. You will need to come up with your own labels as even if they are in the box, they likely aren't "sticky" anymore. Due to unpredictability of stocks we cannot "cherry pick" brands so they are always assorted. Plastic reels may be clear or black. Will work on any 'head format', meaning 'quarter track', 'half-track', 'full-track', '4-track / '8-track' / 'multi-track', stereo or mono tape recorders / decks. Use a bulk eraser or will simply erase when new recordings are made on your deck (assuming your 'erase' is functioning).

(photo of random 'high bias' tape, and not necessarily representative of any brands / models included in 10 pack)
High Bias (Chrome)
7" Reel-to-Reel 1/4" Tape
10-Pack
Used 7", HIGH Bias / CHROME Reel-to-Reel tape. "Grab-bag" assortment of brands may include Ampex, BASF, Irish, Maxell, Realistic, Scotch / 3M, Sony, Soundcraft, TDK and others. Most are at least 1800 feet and some with leaders intact and may or may not include individual box (often do). Most have been used and will have recordings on them. Boxes and / or reels may have extraneous labels and / or marking on them. Reels may have blemishes / nicotine staining / dust etc. You will need to come up with your own labels as even if they are in the box, they likely aren't "sticky" anymore. Due to unpredictability of stocks we cannot "cherry pick" brands so they are always assorted. Plastic reels may be clear or black. Will work on any 'head format', meaning 'quarter track', 'half-track', 'full-track', '4-track / '8-track' / 'multi-track', stereo or mono tape recorders / decks. Use a bulk eraser or will simply erase when new recordings are made on your deck (assuming your 'erase' is functioning). Plastic reels may be clear or black.
