The specifications of the motor you need for your boombox will depend on the specific model of boombox you have. However, here are some general specifications that you may need to consider:


Speed: The motor needs to be able to spin the tape at the correct speed for playback and recording. This speed is usually specified in revolutions per minute (RPM).


Torque: The motor needs to be able to provide enough torque to keep the tape moving smoothly, even when it is under tension.


Power consumption: The motor should not consume too much power, as this could drain the batteries in your boombox quickly.


Durability: The motor should be durable enough to withstand the wear and tear of regular use.


If you are not sure what specifications you need for your boombox motor, you can consult the service manual for your boombox. The service manual will typically list the specific motor that is required for your model of boombox. You can also contact the manufacturer of your boombox for assistance.


Here are some additional tips for purchasing a new motor for your boombox:


Buy a motor from a reputable dealer. This will help ensure that you get a quality motor that will last.


Make sure the motor is compatible with your boombox. Check the specifications of the motor to make sure it matches the specifications of your boombox.


Buy a spare motor. This way, you will have a backup motor in case the original motor fails.


I hope this helps!

The original motor for the Sony CFS-400 boombox is a 2-pole, 20-turn, 12-volt DC motor. It has a maximum speed of 3,600 RPM and a stall torque of 0.15 oz-in. The motor is also brushless, which means that it does not require brushes to operate. This makes the motor more efficient and longer lasting.

If you are looking to purchase a new motor for your Sony CFS-400 boombox, you can find a compatible motor on a number of online retailers. When choosing a new motor, it is important to make sure that it has the same specifications as the original motor. This will ensure that the new motor will work properly with your boombox.

Here are some of the specifications that you should look for when purchasing a new motor for your Sony CFS-400 boombox:

Voltage: The motor must be 12 volts DC.

Poles: The motor must be 2-pole.

Turns: The motor must be 20-turn.

Speed: The motor must have a maximum speed of 3,600 RPM.

Stall torque: The motor must have a stall torque of 0.15 oz-in.

Once you have found a compatible motor, you can then install it in your boombox. The installation process is relatively simple and can be done by following the instructions that come with the motor.

Make sure that the motor is properly aligned with the shaft before you install it.
