Thanks, driptip! Cool That box would be this:

Probably close to the bottom of my list cosmetically, but the M90 was never a box I thought of as beautiful anyway so it's not a big deal. Big Grin

I don't think anybody ever called it, but if they did, I can't remember. That said, it's yours...

Then again, maybe you meant that I want the Discolite. Confused

isolator42 - 2010-05-17 03:44

Ok here's my latest 2 pics:
Sony CFD-5 in the work-office:


& My M90 with the little Toshiba XR-J9 hooked up in the home-office:


I am soon to be a jobseeker Frown so I must remember to bring the Sony home!

lav.loo - 2010-05-17 06:26

very impressive isolator Nod Yes i hope one day i will get the chance to own an m90 Wink

isolator42 - 2010-05-17 08:33

I know everyone bangs on about the M90 like there's no other decent sounding 1pc boomers out there, but it really is a bit special... Smile
Don't get caught up in paying silly money, but keep beleiving & it'll happen.
If my wife got her way, my M90 would be on eBay within the hour Big Grin ...she'd have to knock me off me perch first, though!

oop, to keep in the theme, here's what I had in the home office before the M90 - another truly excellent sounding JVC:

Defenitely not everyone's cup of tea for looks, but by God it's got some deep bass Smile

lav.loo - 2010-05-17 08:42

ye like you say not everyones cuppa but it does look quality sound, if andy v sees it he,ll be after that, hes going 3 piecers now Nod Yes good pic isolator Wink

lav.loo - 2010-05-17 09:50

driptip - 2010-05-18 10:53

lav.loo - 2010-05-18 12:39

hey lav dont worry man, that was just a thought.


very nice sony Daiwa! lovely condition, tho i have come across some of the early sonys and they are in the mid-small size, but packed the hell, so heavy and full of quality, the other pic is great with some giants there, and ofcourse come and visit us more often, is always nice to see old memebers around.

come on guys lets bring this place back to life with some great topics an pics Nod Yes


Hey Lav, I get your point but you have to remember, some of us have lives outside of here!!!

We've got jobs, families, places to go, people to do, things to see and feel!!! Wink But whenever we have time, we drop in from time to time to check out what's happening here at Stereo 2 Go, the best Boombox Site in the Galaxy!!! Big Grin

kballenger53 - 2010-05-19 10:17

By the way Daiwa, that Sony that you have there, looks just like a Realistic SCR-1!!! The Older Brother to my SCR-2 that you see here!!!

He's been searching for his long lost older brother for quite some time now, has anybody seen him?

Nice Box though Daiwa, take care of it!!! Cool

i don,t think that,s the reason kb53, if that,s the reason then it basically means a few years ago when this place was booming people must,nt of had kids, jobs, and people to see about dogs an stuff Big Grin Wink

driptip - 2010-05-19 12:51

hahaha lav !!! hahaha
from what i can remember it was a more united site, back then we use to help eachother out with parts even complete boomboxes, now days everything is money Laugh Out Loud Laugh Out Loud is defenately different feeling being here, but boomboxes are so much part of me and my past that is hard to let go, and i had try believe me!

BROKEN M71

lav.loo - 2010-05-19 13:08

wow thats a sorry site dt, looks like it,s been hit by an AMTRAK Laugh Out Loud
as for helping people out well, i had only been joined here a week and somebody in scotland needed some parts, luckily i had a bashed up radio and i parted it out for him instantly Nod Yes i posted the parts and did,nt even want the postal cost No No i don,t have much of anything myself and im not ashamed to say so, but i like to help people out if possible Nod Yes what im trying to say is not everyones after money i was brought up with nothing and im more than happy to leave with nothing, boxes fill the hole for me and i think that,s why i collect, it,s the only true thing in my life that gets me through apart from my kids.
i would just like to point out that the guy who had the parts from me did send me a cheque to cover postage, although i really was,nt bothered Wink

driptip - 2010-05-19 14:42

thats great man, this site would be so much better if we all pitch in more by the way whats the lates on your radio?

lav.loo - 2010-05-19 16:44

ye your right there dt Nod Yes that 777s absolutely stunning it looks factory fresh Big Grin
there seems to be movement with the blockbuster now i tracked it with parcel force and it was checked into my local depot tonight only half hour ago Smile
there is going to be a charge though because it shows on the tracking, waiting for customs charges Frown im not sure wether i will have to pick it up or wether they will deliver and send me a billing invoice.
either way i will be having it Nod Yes it,s come too far to for me to lose out on it now, i will keep you posted Wink
