At Tuesday i got my personal grail.
I ever wanted an big Discolite.
No special label, only 2 points:
BIG
MANY LED´s
Last time at the flea i found the nice INTERNATIONAL i posted.
Nice, but too small.
And while looking in the net i found something awesome for me.
An LEVIS 161 Jumbo with Discolite!
It should go to ebay, but i contacted the owner and told him to get it before.
So i drove to Graz (~170km outside Vienna) and there was it.
The seller (woman)was an owner of electronic store many years before. When she closed, she took the rest of his depot and stored it at home many years. This box was never played before.
She owns a lot of other new old stock electronics as well.
Now they needs the place otherwise.
A few pics:
Original box:
She bought this boxes in the mid-90´s.
So it came out after ~15years storage:
Playing with the big Disco:
Thats all?
NO!
She has stored a lot of other boomboxes as well!
Monos, Doubledecker-Stereos.... an an second Discolite!
It´s a small doubledecker with detachabler speakers. Never heard of MEKOSONIC before.
No question, i must get it too.
Also brandnew boxed:
Freedom! After long storage...
Look at the hooks for connecting.
Like out of an homeworker shop.
The right box is littlebit rumblin'.
I must look why...
Come together:
The tower of disco-power:
Lights off, Disco on:
I think this will be my new christmas tree.
The quality of this 90´s boxes is not very high. Look at the faking double slided equalizer, the cheap plastic, the faked 2nd VU-meter left at the Mekosonic.
But this fits to them.
Real discokids of the last period of boomboxing...
Jackpot!
happy days--
happy nights

WOW! Brand new!!!!
That the most awesome Tannebaum I've ever seen!
I can't imagine the rush of finding a NIB boombox - especially a disco box!
You are a lucky man :-) , cool christmastree
.
You know i am from Austria and you wrote that the "Lady" you got your Discolite has some more BB´s, so can we get in contact ?
I want such a BB :-).
That box is so bright, yout gotta wear shades.
Nice finds V-Sounds, the tower looks impressive,
Congrats!
Peace,
Paul Z.
Wow Vienna you lucked out big time new in the box boomboxes!!
I would love to see a M-90 NIB some day!
I have to say you are the king of black boomboxes.
Criminy!!!
In boxes, lit boxes, AWSOME boxes!!!
that big disco lite box is the best looking led laden boombox i have ever seen. it looks fantastic.
The tower of disco power looks super cool!!
Thanks friends, for the nice words!
It was great luck to find them.
I also took 2 "new" oldies.
An speaking pyramide clock:
The voice is unbelieveable.
Like a cinese woman, who has eaten an frog!
Typical for the first speaking electronics.
Second was an old speakerset for carradio.
It fits perfectly to my 1996er LADA!
Too sad, that the pictures can not imagine, how it looks, when all lights of the discotower are flashing.
The other new old electronic she stored, are also lovely.
Speaking calculators, translation machines (eastern languages), watches, hairdryers and many more.
Also mono boomers and little SEG doubledeckers.
All new old stock!
Will come next time to austrian ebay!
@börny: I send you PN later!
Some of them are avaiable this time!
All are new old stock.
Little walkmanlike mono:
Or doubledeckers SEG:
A few of them are now at ebay...

Geezum crow!! Incredible radios in incredible condition!! Really amazing stuff Vienna Sound, good to see them find a loving home. Well done indeed hombre.

Are you in possibility to post the mono's list from that lady?
Today i made a few pics with all 4 Discolites, before the VIRASONIC get wrecked.
So the christmas tree has grown up:
Adding the 3lights-discomatic i bought today
Tower of power at night:
And then i tried to make a short video.
Sorry the wrong camera position, i will make a new one. But a short imagine how it looks...
Video @gluecifer: I´ve never heard an HyperBass, but the DiscoLite sounds nice. Not so powerful like high quality systems,but ok.
@toni: Most of the monos are looking like the one i posted above. I pn you the link to her.
Thanks for sharing Very nice disco.
I love those boxes. To me, they're truly unic

Hi Brian!
If you have seen it at austria ebay - yes!
But it was only a few hours online, before it was taken out!
The sound is quiet nice, but not compareable with an high quality boomer.
But it comes to Helix, Lasonic, Crown and other ones in this categorie.
But it looks nicer!
Na this on was in the US and now that I think about it I think it was a Cougar brand ? the guy had another box that didn't have the original packaging (maybe a TRC-975 ?) Anyway you are one lucky man
really nice score congrats Roman !
Brian

This is truly an amazing collection!
gtastuntcrew302 - 2008-12-14 11:45
I WANTS ONE !!!!
Now i got a baby-disco too!
It´s not a real boombox, it owns no tape.
Instead of it, there is a tiny rippled plexiglass with a 5 LED VUmeter inside.
Also 8 LEDs in the speakers.
The quality is ultracheap, but for 1 euro new in box - OK!
Here a few pics of it:
Out of box:
Power on:

Cool Roman , now your BoomboxDiscoLightChristmastree
