what does it mean if your cassette deck playback and recording sounds warbly?


what does it mean if your cassette deck playback and recording sounds warbly? I just got a brand new Tascam CD-A580, and my recordings and playback sounds shaky or warbly.

Thanks for being sincere with your response. I was looking at my past posts and saw that I did have a very negative tone.


Right now is no time to get into an argument with someone, especially someone you don't know.

I respect you and your history on this platform.

Again, my apologies.
@stereo5 the second I saw your big ol reply, I thought "Uh oh, this moron is gonna try to set me straight!"

I hope your new pattern is trying to do that. It'll get funnier every time.

So here's the thing. you have been one of the many people "trolling" my threads; yes, MY THREADS, with stupid comments. 

Why did you wasting your time telling me how cassettes are crappy?
If I like something, I like it. So, instead of ranting about how stupid and shitty my cassettes and decks are, make a personal note about that. Keep your thoughts to yourself.

And honestly, these threads have given me lots of help and info (you did not supply any, of course). So, I plan on staying on here, and ask questions by making threads about audio equipment. 

So, get used to being annoyed with my threads.
That is your problem anyway.

Have fun replying!


@fuzztone the reason I bought a brand new deck is because i wanted a perfectly working deck. didnt happen

i dont want a moron on my thread dissing stuff I enjoy.

You said something about juvenile name calling; he said "sucks" twice.
I hope it dont have to send it back; it looks great, and plays cds as well. but, i dont want a defective deck.
@russ69 ok man. stop trolling my threads with negative comments. You are being a jerk
@russ69 thanks man. I’m too late to ask if I can send it back, but I hope I can get them to make an acception.
@stereo5 @crn3371 I can't wait to see your responses. 

Probably going to tell me something about thick and thin skin again, huh?

Go ahead. I'll just reply right back.

I'm honestly not surprised. I knew there would be some stuck-up audiophiles on this forum.

Also, you are one of the many people putting rude responses on my threads. So, maybe YOU should stay off the internet.

Get used to seeing my threads with questions about "mediocre" equipment.
That is your problem anyway. 

Let @stereo5 respond. 
@stereo5 There you go again! You are ignoring my posts and doing anything you can to do so. 

Why are you reporting me? I have not and won't do that to you?


@stereo5 I find it really cheap and thin-skinned to report my posts. You never said anything about what I said except for the thing about cassettes, which I falsely accused you of (sorry). 

But honestly, if you could not be as negative on my threads, that'd be nice. I dont like having arguments, especially over the computer.

I think we should just end our argument right here, and end it with the fact that we were both stupid.

You do not have to respond.
