nakamichi professional services

Problems with your Nak? Need full restoration? Or only adjustment and calibration?

No problem at all. I can have your Nakamichi deck electronically adjusted and calibrated and possibly upgraded, - depending on the model - provided it is in good mechanical condition, as spares are really hard to find. I can demagnetize, clean, lubricate and calibrate to perfect condition to the last gear, with original Nakamichi alignment tapes and gauges, and proper testing gear. Please take a look at some repairs we have already done in these pages.

I can replace all rubbers and belts, upgrade bad orange caps with audio-grade polypropylene caps, upgrade DC rails with new IC-regulators, shorten signal paths, install new hi-performance low noise operational amplifiers, replace noisy zenners diodes, rectifier diodes and re-cap power supplies, upgrade mains transformers, and many more. We can leave your deck You will not believe your ears ! The deck will certanly leave the bench well within specs, and probaly better!

Dare to do it yourself? Good! Get yourself a copy of the service manual, easily available from ebay, or some other websites, and a set of alignment tapes. Can’t find them? Need Calibration Tapes?
