Great find. Speculations about forgotten containers somewhere in a harbor area full of new Walkmans or boomboxes have been circulating for years....
Great thread :) My office workhorse. Solidly built, easy to use, super reliable. Very good microphone and ALC. Excellent playback performance,...
Nice box and picture. Those pants say something about the time period this photo was taken, haha :) Never seen that box before. Double decks and...
Perhaps it was intended as a device to be positioned between the regular CFS mini boxes and the FH series? The thickness is indeed noticeable.
Great find for 9 bucks! I always hope to find old JVC tape decks at thrift stores to find compatible tape heads for the M90, M80, PC5, and PC3 etc...
I had to set strict boundaries. My space isn't unlimited. Excluding JDM stuff was the easiest step. My days of actively collecting are also long...
You have to be careful with the ZX-7. It has a DD mech, and a lot of them run too fast. Not an easy fix. I hardly ever look in Japan anymore....
There are many desirable mono boomboxes. So the mono2go joke was pretty common. I have quite a few myself. The Sony WA range are small boomboxes...
I think you'll find more information on Mono2go ;) I believe only the WA-8000 and higher are stereo. It's a nice machine to look at, but mono...
Following this thread, I went back to check my archives. In 2014, I bought an Osaka Hi-Teen player. I picked it up in person and had an...
I also tried to poke holes in John Edwards arguments and conclusions with all sorts of research back then, but I couldn't. That Sony is pretty...
Me too. I have a TC-150 on my desk next to my calculator for office voice applications. Such an old device has advantages over modern solutions....
Looks like an aka of the Realistic Minisette 11
I saw Elac equipment for sale here before. I never really thought about what it was. What I saw were mainly speakers. But never saw the deck. Good...
"Well, we make small CRT monitors in our factory. Let's make money and produce lots of different TV boomboxes for everyone!" said the factory...
That's certainly a plausible scenario. This slide-in design was quite popular in the 70s. Even the pre-TPS-L2 personal stereo cassette players...
Like it. I think I have one too somewhere. I still have those from when I was really into scoring monos. Very solid box! From the time when...
I also recognize a few ISP boomboxes in there. But those are also related to Orion in some way.
There are some Conion boxes with the auto-style slide transport ;)
Oh, too bad I completely missed that post. Definitely a good score! I love a player with this shape. I definitely know the Sony. I've never seen...
