Hello People!! I am not going to be around for a while due to personal circumstances.............. Nothing to worry about health wise, I will update on my life events soon enough Anyway: This Arrived Today!! Been after this model & version forever....... This is unloved but complete - tuner & amp work perfectly, tape deck needs belts!! It is filthy dirty but will come up beautifully ☺ Stay tuned for the restore......
What model number do you have, I have this one - is yours and mine the same model? 100_7896 input Hitachi TRK-8190H 8190
I hope it is something positive. From these I am guessing it is. p.s Nice Hitachi. It actually looks quite clean in the photos.
Yeah she looks clean, the pic here look better than the boomboxery ones, maybe they compress them? Anyway, be well Nick, see you at the meet
This is the slightly harder to find TRK-8290 with the silver tuning dial, speaker grilles & the piano type keys for the tape transport rather than the solid type keys used on the 8190! I don't know if there are any other differences between the two - I have always pondered this over the years!! Definitely prefer the look of the 8290 which is why it has taken so long to find one all complete!! As a side note: I am sadly unable to make it to the meet due to changes at home - Not the best time for major changes at home, however it is for the right reasons & hinges on me being happy again since the marriage breakup & the horrible after effects of the stroke!! Hope to catch up with you guys at the next UK meet!!
