Teac A-3300S - Service and Warranty Information; Service

The TEAC 3300S is an extremely versatile tape deck, designed for the beginner
through simplicity of design, yet built to the high technical requirements demanded
by the semi-professionals and experienced audio enthusiasts. This manual, therefore,
has been written in two sections. The forward section is rather brief and designed to
familiarize you with the location of the features and controls, followed by a very
brief, simplified, Basic Operations chapter. This first portion may not be sufficient
for those without extensive recording knowledge and experience. The remainder of
this manual expands the basic information to lead the novice into the exciting world
of audio recording.
There have been dozens of books and thousands of magazine articles written about
stereophonic audio equipment and techniques. It would be impossible to include all
this published material in the space available to this Instruction Manual. Every instal¬
lation, every combination of components, and every situation has its own problems,
with specific solutions required. Therefore, we recommend that if you are unable to
achieve the results you want with your stereo system, talk with your dealer. If he
is unable to solve your problem or give you a solution, perhaps he can refer you to
a good book or guide you to some of the excellent magazine articles available. Your
city library probably has many excellent publications to aid you to truly enjoy the
wonderful world of sound recording.
