For sale is an extremely rare top-of-the-range AKAI GX-9 cassette recorder.

The AKAI GX-9 was a very special cassette recorder of the 80s.
This cassette recorder needs no introduction for connoisseurs.
This was Akai's 'most elegant' cassette recorder, with its clean design, but at the same time combined with the cutting-edge technology of the time...

Beautiful aesthetic condition, and good operation.
The Cassette Deck is over 40 years old, but FLD information panel and the level meter display are fantastically bright, like a new product.

SPECIAL FEATURE:
During the renovation, the bottom plate was chrome-plated at no small expense!
Thus, the typically dirty, stained bottom plate also became in beautiful condition.
Look at the photos!

The front panel, sides and back of the cassette deck are flawless!
Is it on the deck top a 'fingernail' size small spot (barely visible) - this is also photographed separately...
BUT
The tape recorder has a special black satin 'dust cover', which ensures an impeccable aesthetic appearance.
Check out these photos.

The Timer also comes with two user manuals
- one original owner's manual, in English, French, German, Dutch, Spanish, Norwegian (71 pages)
- one original service manual, in English
These are already nowadays and very rare accessories!
None of the manuals are damaged or creased, both are perfect!

The box shown in the photos is not the original Akai box, but it is provided with a type designation sticker.
