Sony CFS-9000 - small powerpack

kid.sensation - 2008-12-15 04:59

first of all thanks to our "warrior of the wasteland" - Roman - for finding and selling this unit!!feedback in the feedback-area soon!

As said above, Roman was so kind to part with his Sony CFS-9000 and today it got here..
I build it up and connected - first thing i noticed: the tuner is awesome!!!
And so is the sound!!

It really is a small unit with very small speakers but boy do they pump!!clear highs very good bass and great mids!
It easily eats up lots of my bigger toys with the awesome sound - build quality - awesome tuner - awesome deck.

so far the deck does not work and i will check that later Smile

by the way , the 7 stands for 7 bands!
did i mentioned that the tuner on that unit is awesome?

a first bad pic:



think i need to get me some more boxes of the FH-series Smile

Good luck getting the deck working Kid.



Rock On.

kid.sensation - 2008-12-15 08:31

thanks guys!!

still really impressed by the sound of the small sony -- imagine how the bigger FH-compos might sound Eek

great quality unit.

Nice catch,your right on with the sound quality,i've got a FH7 on ebay at the moment,they sound awsome !

viennasound - 2008-12-15 09:14

Glad to see it in good hands, felix! Smile
Right, the box is very good sounding - and very heavy! Big Grin
I hope you can get the deck working.
Show us some pics when opening the unit.
I would like to see, why it owns about near 10kilos.



And here i found it at the flea: Smile

Gogo ViennaSound & happy boomboxing Kid Sensation!

great job Cool.

Kid, first...Nice Find! Second...Not an FH-7. It's a CFS-9000. I have the 9900 and it's similar. Quite the little powerhouse! Big Grin

kid.sensation - 2008-12-16 07:02

oh wow -- did not saw that oldskool Laugh Out Loud

now looking at it again in better light i just spotted the CFS-9000 beneath the tapedoor Big Grin

guess i was mislead by the design and the 7 bands Wink

thanks for correcting!

Congratulations Felix! Smile

It is a very 80s looking sony! Cool

Congrats on the 9000 , Felix.
Great little Sony.
I own one too.

Excellent BBX !!!!

I have de 9900. The power amplfier is a STK about 25+25W. The supply is hughe, like a music centre. And the power handling of the APM speakers is superb.

Really Sony had built a music centre and packed like a portable.

You need to test it with bigger speakers. I hocked a pair of Jensen and really give them hard !!!!

Nice design Cool

transwave5000 - 2009-03-12 06:26

I found this at the thrift store.
No handle, no speakers.
Was half the usual price so.....

oldskool69 - 2009-03-12 13:33

I've got one of these as well. Quite a little powerhouse. Nod Yes

jvc.floyd - 2009-03-12 13:44

One of my favourites, a good exaple of Sony styling actually working.

I was lucky enough to find mine with original carry case with shoulder strap.

success - 2009-03-12 17:54
