Denon LA-3500 Tray belt?

Before I cut and measure the old one, was curious if anyone knows exact replacement.

I do not. I tried giving a belt to someone based on sizing of a LX-900, but he said it did not fit. He sent a photo and it did not look like the LX-900 photo I took of the same loading area.

I went as far as calling Denon which of course resulted in nothing.

Don't cut the belt :shock:

If you happen to still have a local repair shop, see if you can ask them to size up a belt that they might have available. You just need to bring the original in (uncut) so they can measure one out slightly smaller.

Wished our database for the Panasonic LX-600/900 was more complete but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Shows how to measure if belt is broken. This gave me the idea to cut the belt to get measurements.
With lock-down here in the GTA would be almost impossible to bring old belt in to a shop.

Don't cut, take it off lay it flat UNCUT and measure, take a pic and contact someone who sells belts.
I had this issue and they sold me the correct belt for a DVD player.

Showed them a pic and they gave me the size.
Would be best if you have a caliper.
Good luck.

Edit: i've used that site and it doesn't work, find the person who is selling belts and show them a pic if
they know what they're doing they will get you a correct belt.

I didn't stretch it with pens but lay it flat and try to make it round as possible without distortion.

When I did that site for measuring I had to buy twice, so I am stuck with the wrong size.

The seller on ebay I used who helped incredibly was marvac_2001

I wish I could remember exactly the size of belt I gave him. I think it was either a 3.6 or 4.0. It fit great on a LX-900 but he said it was too small for his LA-3500. Take this with a grain of salt though.
