About the Sony TC-S1 Cassette Deck

Why this one

Fair condition - a fully working unit at a great price
Fully tested - all applicable functions verified working
Triple-motor transport with Dolby B, C and S noise reduction and Auto-Rec calibration.

Condition: Fair

This cassette deck is in fair condition. It has passed our 6-point functional test; no faults found. Note: Fully tested; it powers on and everything checked works as it should. Cosmetically, there are quite a few surface marks and scratches throughout. Most notably, part of the casing has started to come away on the right side. This does not affect the overall use of the unit, but it is worth noting. Please review all photos carefully, as they provide an accurate representation of the cosmetic condition of the product.

About this model

The Sony TC-S1 is an auto-reverse, single-cassette deck from Sony's Esprit line, built around a 2-head layout with separate record/playback and erase heads. It is driven by three motors (capstan, reel and assist) and runs at 4.8 cm/s, with support for Type I, CrO2 and Metal tapes. Noise reduction covers Dolby B, C and S, alongside Dolby HX-Pro Dynamic Extension, and the deck quotes a frequency response of 25Hz to 19kHz on metal tape and wow and flutter of 0.06% WRMS. Auto-Rec calibration, AMS (Automatic Music Sensor) and a high-rigidity tray system round out the feature set.

A great opportunity to own a Sony TC-S1 at this price point.
