Hello Krass, Many thanks for the advice! I'm waiting for some new belts that "should" be a little bit better, and when I will open it again maybe I can take some photos, just as future memories. The roller it's quite a bit shiny, so it could be that it's mostly him the cause of the wow. I will try to understand how to change it. I mean, if I try to record a single constant tone, I can hear the "up and down" very clearly. I tried different cassettes, both for recording and from albums, and regardless the problem is present, so I'm quite sure that is a problem of mechanic/used components. I was thinking of trying to put some contact oil in the motor, but I'm not really sure that is a good idea.

Hello guys, I hope that someone with a little bit more experience with cassette stereo could help me with some minor problems that I have with this system. Long story short, I decided to buy this 1972 cassette because was fairly nice to see and at a decent price. It works and the sound is not bad for a 50 years old piece of equipment BUT, because there is always a but, it has quite a bit of wow and flutter. Now, I changed the belt with a cheap one found on amazon, and cleaned the roller as much as I could, but I don't know if there is anything else that I could do to mitigate or solve this problem. So, any advice is welkome!
