Belt for Sony WM EX9 WM EX900 Walkman

Description: ONE Walkman belt, new, unused. PLEASE, read description and FAQ section before you send me the message or question.I get tens of messages every day and now it is not manageable for me to answer them all.However, if you have any question related to your, order, quality, shipping, feel free to ask. The most belts offered here on eBay or in various e-shops are too thick and therefore usable with restrictions only. Thicker belts are cheaper and easier to produce, but your walkman will be out of wow/flutter specs! Please, ask the seller about the belt thickness, elasticity and quality before you place bid. It took me more than a year to collect all information. I had to buy more than 300 walkmans to get accurate information about the belt size. Before I listed my belts, I tested each. The belts offered by me are the same thick as original - only 0.5 TO 0.6 mm THICK. My belts are custom made, do not ask for original ones - these are not made anymore. Even if you find some, they will be old and unusable. MY BELTS are NEW, maximum 2 years old. After 2 years, I will order new production. In most cases, replacing the belt and adjusting motor speed is quick-win. However, to bring walkman to the original specs, more tasks should be done. Please, see the FAQ section below for more details. The reason, why I sell the belts is, that I want to encourage people in keeping their old walkmans. That's why I SELL with ZERO profit, for the lowest-possible price. Do not ask me for discounts, the price per belt could be lower only if they were made and sold in tens of thousands. The sell price includes all eBay and PayPal fees, packing material and the belt itself. Generally, I do not accept returns. However, if the belt is defective, I will send you new one. If you ordered wrong belt, I will send you replacement of the correct size (if I have it) for the shipping cost only.

FAQ section Q: After I replace the belt, what else should I do?A: You should at least set correct tape speed. Please go to http://www.ebay.com/itm/Speed-calibration-test-tape-for-cassette-deck-or-walkman-3000-Hz-/132264659421 for more details. For perfect results, you should also do cleanup, lubrications and other tasks. Q: Walkman runs too slow or too fast, even after I replaced the belt.A: This is not belt issue. This is old device and speed has to be re-adjusted. Please, see the previous answer Q: I can hear lot of wow/flutterA: There can be many reasons for it. Most often it is worn pinch roller, dirt in the belt path, dirty or dry moving parts of walkman, polished capstan, dry capstan bearings, wrong belt size or quality, etc. Q: Do you also fix walkmans?A: Yes, I’ve fixed many of them. Usually for my friends and for me. I have about 400 of them. Sometimes I also fix walkmans for eBay members but I'm very busy. Q: I need advice regarding fixing walkmansA: I am very glad to help. Unfortunately, I get so many question, that I'm not able to answer them all. Please visit tapeheads.net or stereo2go.com sites and ask experienced members, there. Answers are then available for everyone. I also contribute there. Q: Do you also sell walkmans?A: Not now, may be one day... Q: What is the correct belt path routing?A: Google search your walkman model and display result as images. Usually you will find photo of mechanics. If not, make your photo and send it to the forums mentioned above. I will try to help. Q: My model is not listed, do you have belt, pinch roller or idler for it?A: If it is not listed, it means that I do not have information about the size. In case of the belt, please measure the belt length. Stretch a piece of string along the belt path and measure the belt circumference. Send the measures to me. From this I can measure the original belt size. In case of pinch roller, send me the outer diameter, rubber height, hub height and hole diameter. Q: What belts do you sell?A: I sell only hard-to-get belts used in later walkman models. Thicker belts used in early models should be available elsewhere. Q: After I hit play button, I can hear only slight motor noise and then it stops. Is it belt issue, or is it something else?A: Yes, it is very probably the belt issue. Q: How long do belts usually last?A: Usually about 20 years. It depends on the amount of additives added during vulcanization process. I tried to avoid using too much additives for increasing the material elasticity, so I hope the belt will last longer. But who knows..
