can cassette decks overheat?

i use it about every other day

Sure it can, now make sure it doesn't. A little air flow goes a long ways. pretty simple..

I been looking at a 1 7/8 and 3.5 pro format.. for recording and playback.

Wife likes cassette.. She has hundreds of those thing and loves to record and tinker..

Regards

@oldhvymec thanks! 

I’ve had my Aiwa AD f770 for going on 38 years now, and not once has it over heated. Short of a belt change, still going strong. Also own its little brother, the ad f660, no issues. These were some of the best cassette decks ever made! Had the king of the hill ad f990 Aiwa but sold it as I needed money at the time. It fetched $900! Back to question, I guess anything is possible, so cannot rule out an issue with over heating. However that is usually a concern with amps.

@audioguy85 cool, thanks! I really love having series of audio equipment. I am trying to get together a B&O turntable collection.
