[W126 Coupe] Becker Radio

[Axel Wulff]

It sounds like your tape-head is either dirty or is malfunctioning.

If cleaning the head does not help, you are probably due for an audio 
upgrade.

That can be as sophisticated and complex as you wish. The easiest solution 
is to buy a new head-unit with a built in amplifier, four new speakers and 
run new cables to the rear deck and dash locations.

You need to replace the speakers because the Becker OEM are 2 Ohm (and they 
are crap....) and under no circumstances should you try to incorporate a new 
head-unit with existing wiring and components (crap and more crap).
