Optisch in ordentlichem Zustand, Frontblende und Rückwand original. Seitliche Holzwangen hochwertig nachgefertigt, Ober- und Unterseite aus Holz. Zwei Dellen vorhanden, bitte Fotos beachten.
Mechanik funktioniert. Beim Aufnehmen gibt es Rauschen im linken Kanal, außerdem vermutlich Kontaktproblem an der Aufnahmetaste. Möglicherweise wurde die Vorverstärkerplatine bereits früher von einem anderen GX-620 übernommen und Elkos und Transistoren wurden durch neue Bauteile ersetzt (2SC2240). Verkauf an Bastler oder als Teilespender.
Zusätzlich gibt es eine alte Spule mit Magnetband mit ca. 10 Minuten Test Aufnahme
Der Verkauf erfolgt unter Ausschluss jeglicher Gewährleistung, Garantie und Rücknahme. Der Artikel wird wie beschrieben und abgebildet verkauft.
€625 is a strong deal: it sits well below the €882 25th percentile and far under the €1,134 median for recent EUR comparables. Even allowing for the for_parts status, the pricing leaves enough room for repair risk and still lands in bargain territory rather than merely “cheap.”
The GX-620 is a respected Akai deck, valued for its GX heads, solid transport, and generally serious build quality, so there’s real upside if the core machine is complete and the fault is localized. The main buyer question is whether it’s truly a parts unit or a restorable deck with a known issue; at this price, I’d be looking closely at head wear, transport behavior, and whether any hard-to-find hardware is missing.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Akai Electric Company Ltd. traces its origins to Japan, founded by engineer Masukichi Akai in Tokyo around 1929, with his son Saburo Akai playing a key role in its early growth. Initially focused on affordable radio components, the firm formalized as a full electronics manufacturer post-World War II, often cited as 1946. By the mid-20th century, Akai had evolved into a prominent name in consumer audio, peaking in the 1970s before financial troubles led to its exit from the industry in 1991.
The brand built its legacy on high-quality tape-based audio gear, including reel-to-reel tape recorders, cassette decks, tuners, amplifiers, and complete stereo systems that brought professional-grade sound to homes. In the late 1980s, Akai Professional revolutionized music production with the MPC series—starting with the 1988 MPC60, co-designed by Roger Linn—integrating sampling, sequencing, and velocity-sensitive pads into compact workstations that defined hip-hop and electronic genres.
Today, Akai holds a revered vintage-collector status among hi-fi enthusiasts for its robust 1970s components, prized for their warm analog character and build quality. In the pro audio realm, the MPC line endures as an iconic, mid-to-high-end tool for beatmakers, with modern iterations sustaining the brand through licensing. While not a current leader in traditional hi-fi like amplifiers or speakers, its heritage appeals to savvy buyers seeking timeless reliability over fleeting trends.
