New one in today !!!

Hitachi TRK-8600E
Bought with no sound working on any function.
Replaced belts and heavily contact cleaned the function switch and now have audio on Tape/Radio/Line-In.
Condition is pretty mint.
This stereo goes loud! has some nice mid range and bass though sometimes a little light on the high end. Boy is that aerial LONG!, goes on for ever, though this is a super looker. The deck mechanism is really nice too, overall a super box. Will update with a better outdoor shot when it stops pissing it down.

Picture updated below.

lav.loo - 2010-10-23 13:10

excellent stuff DOCS, great to see/hear you got it functional

congrats on an absolute superb looking box, one of the best lookers out there in my opinion

docs - 2010-10-24 09:59

Updated the picture from post above.

A new one in today !

This one needs no introduction, you all know how good this box is. Picked it up for a great price too! The packaging had me worried, but the seller used a really good courier so it didn't get any abuse. However, it is in almost mint condition just needing a minor clean...

lav.loo - 2010-11-03 09:24

the m70 eh

not a big fan of the look of the jvc's myself DOCS , but there's no denying the sound quality of them

that box is highly rated as you know, congrats on a great score there, can't wait to hear your verdict on it's performance, congrats again mate

fresh.produce - 2010-11-03 09:38

Nice nice jvc doc

docs - 2010-11-05 05:38

Thanks guys. Fresh pics of the M70.

I have to say that the JVC quality does not dissapoint. The one I received here is the M70BL. It is in superb condition but its the quality of it that really stands out.
Just the really nice little touches like the sliders clicking into a notch in the middle and the quality of the switches themselves. Thats before you even think about the quality of the audio.

Overall this is one brilliant blaster with outstanding build quality which I paid much less for than some of the others I have.
So if anyone was ever contemplating getting one and was unsure about laying out the $£moolar£$ for one, I can wholeheartedly say that you will not be dissapointed if you do.

lav.loo - 2010-11-05 09:37

very nice, looks almost new, i had an m70 a couple of year back but mine was a state, would love a fine example like yours

congrats again DOCS

lav.loo - 2010-11-09 14:53

hey their she is in all her glory

that really is a sweet box, i can also confirm that it weighs a ton, real solid build quality, (hows your back DOCS)

on a serious note ye it really is a beauty, looks a lot nicer in the flesh too, and your right the dc7 is rare, check out ebay and it's all dc33's, anyway glad you like it DOCS, what else is there to say apart from another diamond in your collection

jlf - 2010-11-13 13:22

I absolutely love your collection!

Well done!

docs - 2010-11-13 13:26

Wow thanks JLF, appreciate your comment.

docs - 2010-12-11 13:35

The simply stunning M90. Nothing more needed to say.

docs - 2010-12-11 13:41

The great JVC M60. This is a really nice box with good sound and underestimated for its size. Overall superb quality and a stunning deck.

docs - 2010-12-12 02:50

The Lasonic is a really nice original icon. Great looks and good sound make this one to have for anyone.
Having replaced the function switch on this it is now 100% and in great physical condition.

docs - 2010-12-12 02:54

Courtesy of LAV LOO. The 9191 is a great looking box and has a good sound quality to go with it. As it is the big brother to the 9090 it out performs it too regarding both looks and audio quality. there is not much in it but this one grabs your atention due to the frontal phono connection. Overall top notch example of a great style boombox.

docs - 2010-12-12 03:04

A new JVC came into my possesion thanks to member Lav Loo.
These are fairly rare over this side of the world and this one is in really good condition, near mint.
The sound is pretty damn sweet for a turntable boombox but boy, nearly put my back out carrying the damn thing.

Holy Christmas Tree!!! This JVC is simply superb. It has a great sound quailty that mtaches the overall quality of the JVC brand. Auto selction of the function you are using is a unique feature!

lav.loo - 2010-12-12 03:42

love the new pics DOCS

your collection is the best iv'e ever seen, the diversity in your box range is simply mindblowing

dave, when i picked up my last m90 the guy had one of these for sale,it sounded very good for it's size,he was asking a bit to much for it but well worth picking up if you get a chance for the right money

docs - 2012-11-24 02:40

The 9998 are a beautiful box and the sound is really deep and crisp. It depends on how much he was asking I guess but in my opinion these are worth a good £150 of anyone's money. One of my favourites and a definite keeper, they just ooze quality.
