Solved! How do you fix buzzing noises on cassettes?

[Realsolidbongo]

I bought a Toshiba Stereo Music Center Model AX-8. Records sound great and work fine, radio is spot on, but whenever I put in a cassette it makes a loud buzzing sound. Is thee a way to clean the cassettes? I have old recording of my grandpa singing his music on cassettes, I wouldn't want them to go to waste. Please help!

Question from Realsolidbongo : "So I bought an old Toshiba Stereo Music Center Model AX - 8."

Need help with a buzzing sound on my stereo. It is only buzzing when I try to use certain cassettes. Some buzz and some don't I'm a newbie so keep it simple please.

It could be that the recording on these cassettes is bad. Try rhem on another player (eg in an older car)

how treasured are they? I would try to make copies of them and not play the originals if you can, hate to break them... even if they sound bad. One day it could be the only recording you have of him
