Today it was a Sunny day here in the city where i live !!
Woke up early and didnt know how to reach the usual
place i hang out on Sundays as the Marathon was
taking place (Which btw was won by Hillari Kopgei a Kenyan runner)
as most of the roads were closed .

I did find some time though to pay my respects to the athletes and then
went straight away to were bbox heaven is as
i knew i would regret it if i wouldnt go!
Did manage to make my way over there from
the National highway and did come back with those 2 beautiful
radio cassette players !
A Crown CSC300
and a Toshiba Bombeat SX2
Here are some pics !

deech,
You are lucky to be living where you are!
The Crown is one of the most elegant machines ever seen, in my eyes.
Only wish, it has a matching sound.

Top scores deech....oftern wondered what that crown is like

I've always loved the Crown CSC300, with a look in between certain Akai/Panasonic and -- upside down -- the Pioneer SK-909. It's a great box, wonderful find deech!

That Crown is indeed unique thanks for the kind comments !!
Didnt have the time to listen to it though tbh
as the right channel was dead and took it apart really quick for the
usual bath and clean !

SK-909? That is exactly Crown CSC350L
Picture from recallsharp
but the CSC300 looks far far better.

--------------
mine is the 350 version --assuming they have the identical sound -
which imho is very much as great as it looks
deech - 2013-11-10 11:07
The 350 version looks nice too
it seem like it has plus the eq feature .
Now if you d ask my opinion i d say
the 300 model looks cooler !
Here is an old
vintage ad from crown including the 350 model.
samovar - 2013-11-10 11:16
yes, the 350 is exactly the box i had in mind
mine is the 350 version --assuming they have the identical sound -

agree!
The 350 version looks nice too [...] Now if you d ask my opinion i d say the 300 model looks cooler !
they're both very cool imho

He does it again....well done Deech!!!

Two great finds. The Crown is very intriguing!
deech - 2013-11-16 08:58
Today i have tried to get the Crown csc300 back together which
proved to be so tricky.
My main problem now is that it doesnt power up.
This bbox is quite complicated and now tbh i m gutted with
it as i tried and did my best but as result i get no power.
When i did get it back together it powered up once and when
i hit the power button again it was dead.
Tried and change some connections but nothing again.
Now i may sound silly but as you can see in the pics
there are 2 spreakers which are not connected with the unit.
are those for cosmetic reasons or do they have a purpose?
Are they passive radiators?
Please tech guys give me some advise as i dlike to see her work again..
Please anwer here

Deech is doing too much.
If he goes out of his home, he will come back with some super rare, never seen before grails. That too for peanuts!
