Technics SC-HD515 CD Shelf System Questions & Answers
My Technics SC-HD501. I need advice on speakers
Looking at the specs for your system, the amplifier only puts out 23x2 watts. That means each speaker right now will get 23 watts (approx.). This amplifier is built to drive the load (the speakers) that is hooked up to it now. If you were to hook up another set of speakers, they would have to be pretty small (similar to what came with the system) with a higher impedance (over 8 would be good). The issue is the increased load/strain on the amplifier with the new speakers. However, if you are using relatively small speakers, with short run of speaker wire you should be allright (most amps have a temp protection built in, if the amp gets too hot it will shut off). To hook up additional speakers use the terminal that are there. You will 2 right speakers and 2 left. Place both positive ends of the right speakers in the positive terminal on the back of the amp (twist the ends together, if you must) and both negatives in the negative terminal, for the right speaker, on the back of the amplifier. Do the same for both left speakers.
In summary, you can probably hook another set up small speakers (which are only a short distance away from the amp) without much problem assuming you wont be pushing the amplifier to its limits all the time. You may find the amplifier lack punch or looses some sound quality though as the amp is not designed to be driving and controlling that many speakers.
Hope this helps

Technics RS-BX501 cassette deck door won't open
If you feel confident doing so, you could attempt to open the cassette deck and physically examine the gears to check for damage or debris that might be obstructing them.
But do remember that there are risks involved when opening electronic equipment, especially if you're not used with doing this kind of work. If you're not sure you can do this securely, it would be preferable to get assistance from a qualified audio equipment repair specialist.
