A neighbor gave me this Teac A-4010S reel to reel tape deck and, according to him, it was last powered on over 30 years ago! The belt had disintegrated into a pile of rubble, and the pinch roller arm was sticky. I got it going again. For this video, we take a quick look at some of the interesting things about this tape deck, and see how it stacks up against a Sony TC-353 and a Sears Silvertone 4238. In the end, the newer Sony works better now in 2019, but I have a feeling in prime operating condition the Teac motor mechanism would easily outperform it.
