Description from the seller

Sony TC-WE405 - Fully Serviced Double Deck | Autoreverse | Multi-Control Remote & 2 NEW Sealed Cassettes
Description:
Up for auction is a professionally prepared set featuring the Sony TC-WE405 double cassette deck. This unit combines classic Japanese precision with modern convenience. It is in very good visual condition and perfect technical shape, thanks to a comprehensive service.
Technical Condition - Fully Serviced:
The device has undergone a thorough technical overhaul to ensure long-term, trouble-free operation:
Heads: Professionally cleaned and demagnetized.
Mechanism: All four pinch rollers have been replaced with brand-new ones. Drive belts were inspected and replaced where necessary.
Operation: Features "Soft Touch" mechanics for smooth and precise control.
Key Features & Specifications:
Double Autoreverse: Available for both decks (A and B) – allows for continuous playback or recording without flipping the tape.
Noise Reduction: Equipped with Dolby B/C and HX Pro (Headroom Extension) for superior high-frequency response and dynamics.
Frequency Response: Up to 19,000 Hz (Metal tape).

Unique Collector’s Bundle (Free Extras):
Two Brand New Sealed Cassettes (NOS):
Expert C60 (Type I, Normal/Ferro).
Sonor C60 (Type II, Chrome) – Rare Dutch production (Made in Holland).
Both tapes are in their original factory foil, making them a true treat for collectors.
Original Sony RM-SE10AV Remote: A powerful Multi-Control unit that operates not only the deck but also Sony amplifiers, CD players, tuners, MiniDisc, and even Sony TVs and VCRs.
Spare Parts: I am including two additional, brand-new pinch rollers for future maintenance.
Summary:
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a complete, "ready-to-go" vintage Sony setup. The unit will be packed with extreme care using professional materials to ensure it arrives safely at its new home.
