So, my home deck seems to sometimes not want to unload/eject DATs properly at times. I know it doesn't like the 90m DATs. But, I've always done the clear tape trick. But, the last time I loaded a DAT (60m), it seemed to get stuck and not unload. After a little cursing at the player and waiting a few mins, it finally unloaded.
Any suggestions as to what may be causing this? Any tips in terms of me opening up the unit and performing some DIY cleaning/service? I'm considering getting a DA-20 MKII. As, per my understanding, that model WILL play 90m DATs w/out having to perform the clear tape trickery.
Thoughts/suggestions?
TIA!
