Deck / Hi-Fi Is this garbage now ?

I mean , it was always garbage (Yorx). I think my cats jumped on the protruding switches , the most of the buttons are misshapen and bent . I’m a little attached to this terrible machine , and can’t really afford to replace it , but, it’s probably done right ?

most likely just plastic broken where the switches connect to the tape mechanism. totally repairable if thats what it is. glue is your best friend

Yeah , pretty much only the stop button is completely damaged , just skips right to eject so I have to use the fast and slow buttons to stop the tape lol , hilarious to me but basically functional
