How to nobble a cassette deck

In my attempts to deliberately 'ruin' Zara's not particularly good 70s Eurovox cassette deck, I snipped this drive belt, then cut the power to the motor and eventually stuffed a bit of folded-up Gaffa tape in an essential crevice! The result: one reasonably good-sounding line amplifier into which one can plug a portable CD player, iPod, etc. I still haven't managed to work out how to disable the auto-reverse switch, so it clicks a bit, but it'll do for now.
