Concept ELC....Any info?

[vinyldavid]

Just got a Concept ELC TOTL deck and it is the heaviest deck I have ever seen.......

Does anyone know about it? I really like the looks of it.....

I've never heard of it either. I checked vintagecassette.com and they didn't have a listing for that brand either.

So just how heavy is this cassette deck. Go put it on the scale and report back. :D

I have a few that weigh close to 30 pounds so I am curious.

Feels like more than my CT-F9191....

The Pioneer weighs about 30 pounds or so. :)

I saw that also, but wasn't sure so that is why I wanted you to weigh it. *?conf?

OK.....anyone know how to re-belt these? The main belt came off of the flywheel, but still feels nice and pliable....

Or does someone know how to access the transport? Seems like a maze to me...


And once i get it buttoned back up, I'll set it on the scale to satisfy your curiosity, Web Police.
