Description from the seller

Sony TC-209SD – Vintage front-loading stereo cassette deck
Very beautiful aesthetic condition

Offered for sale, this Sony TC-209SD cassette deck is in very good aesthetic condition, with a nice overall presentation and limited signs of use consistent with its age.

The unit powers on and operates, but it presents several faults that will probably require a small service:
- the left channel delivers a lower volume than the right channel;
- the left channel vu-meter needle operates irregularly;
- the tape counter is stuck on zero.

Otherwise everything works.
Playback speed OK.

The unit retains a very nice appearance and constitutes an excellent base for a collector or an enthusiast of vintage audio gear.
