Sanyo DC-T55 Review: A Blast from the Past

  1. Buy a Bluetooth Receiver: Plug a $15 Bluetooth 5.0 receiver into the "AUX" input on the back of the main unit. Now you can stream Spotify or Apple Music through the vintage amp.
  2. Replace the Speaker Wire: The original wire is thin and oxidized. Buy 16-gauge copper wire for a noticeable clarity improvement.
  3. Clean the Head (For Cassette): Dip a Q-tip in isopropyl alcohol and clean the tape heads, pinch roller, and capstan. You will be shocked at how much brown oxide comes off.

1. Tangible Music Experience There is a ritual to playing a cassette or a record. The click of the mechanism, the static of the needle drop—the DC-T55 forces you to slow down and listen to an album from start to finish.
