Who knows the boom box product name for the header image above. I've been looking for a boom box from 83 that I wanted to purchase and it was sold out. I was saving up for it when I was 18, and the image above kind of looks like it. I ended getting a toshibe with the remote control in 1983. The one I had my heart set on was a Fisher. I only remember that it had some real nice speakers like the ones above, it had some serious base for the day and the panel with all the knobs had a 45 degree angle to it. I've been searching Google forever but can't seem to find an image of it.

The box in the banner is the Sharp CT-6001.

something wrong with "posting pics" function, 

so I posted pic of Fisher PH470.
but I can't see it. 

jrgman please google Fisher PH470 or Sanyo MR-P6, they are the same units with diffrent badges.

Or this sort of thing?

Sorry Metad, didn't mean to sabotage your response, try again, it should be working.

metad - 2011-02-15 08:42

The Sanyo P6 was the same as the Fisher PH-470. Was it this box?

totaly agree with RR.. That Sharp CT-6001 looks so great.. Never seen a bbx with a colour TV. Retro, is it yours? Can you tell us more about this model?

p.s. can't say, i'm a smiley fan, but i really miss "word!" and those two drunk smileys too

This is a very old auction photo from Yahoo Japan, I don't own one, but I think Paul does. I have a brochure scan somewhere with the specs, but I think It was Japanese domestic only. I see the other half of your name is back Also, the smileys will be back once it's enabled

Ok, the text may be a little hard to read, but this what I have.
