Since the manual i sent you yesterday was written by Mr. MacGywer..you can read up how to build a new handle, tuner and deck just using some paper, a clip and some rubber.
After you did that you can even fly with it around your block to show off your skills to the kids.
It should work out quite nice.
Nice unit Ira, congrats
now - i NEED that manual --!!
and thanks alot again , felix -for all that nice work to find it -buy it -and ship it .

WOW . Great Find!!!
Now all you have to do is replace every thing aside from the amp section and speakers and she will be perfecto.
haha - no problem TA -
these things are everywhere !!

Where is the radiator located at????
look at the close-up shot -
its behind the grill that says acoustic 3D
transamguy1977 - 2008-08-10 14:23
So is it ported at the bottom?
Really nice looking box though.
Hope you can get it sorted out.
Worst case a really good I-pod amplifier
one matter is improving --
when the tuner drifts , it usually drifts onto a station with better songs !!
port is a small long foam like the 880 except its a long passive radiator its small but the space behind it is where air collects from both speakers and to be honest its mostly an inside the house radio as you will here deep bass, the tuner just needs some adjustment,deck the usual belts
thanks, ramon - for the pep talk
now how about a handle ??!!
well we may be able to build one out some old pool parts
Glad your (one of them anyway) journey is over. Congrats!
Now just swing your sledghammer slightly to the rear of the unit and ta-da! Tuner will work!
too good to be true ?? dont know yet --i just now called them --and they have some nerve to be closed on sunday night !!
be all over it in the morning --
THANKS, tony
your welcome, hope it's still available for you
transamguy1977 - 2008-08-10 18:43
WOW a new old part.
Now that would be nice.
Or better than some pool plumbing parts
no soap on the partstore --
but it still sounds nice , even with no handle
ok , tony --will try them tomorrow --
but -- have one off a CA-30 coming from our own moderator --
(and under-rated good guy)
Pan Fan
so - if its fits right --- SCORE!!!!!
Ira, is this your Aiwa 880 in disguise??
