hi all, picked this box up today for £7.50, it,s in quiet a bad way but i got it because it,s quiet a rare one.
it,s branded Audio Sonic model number TBS8900.
iv,e seen this box somewhere branded conion im sure.
anyway here,s a pic, remember it needs a lot of t.l.c. and then i think it would be a decent box
just powered it up and radio works, deck works and all functions, only problem i can see is the led,s are only working on right side.
great sound lots of bass.
heres the cosmetic run down, one antenna is missing, battery terminals rusted and battery door missing, really filthy, lots of marks not scratches, pitting on chrome and bit of rust on right speaker grill.
the grills are removeable so great access for cleaning, this could be a great project for someone who as the knowledge as i think it,s a very rare one in uk

ImageShack.usjust to confirm my suspicions here,s the conion model
az im interested. see your pm mate
Cool! Love the "spare tape" door!
yeh it,s a cool feature that SAMSNITE, do you have one??
the box is great-checked everything out guys-all it needs is a good clean in and out,1 aerial,and a bit of slight re spraying.the sound out of it is really good-and i mean really good indeed-nice and bassy-i love the knob design on it-really interesting-like something off the old transistor radios!plus the tape storage tray pretending to be an extra tape deck is a great feature-and this baby is good and big and heavy too-az mate youve done me a favour here-its the best looking thing ive ever owned-bad ass to the bone
and finally, you guys-you can see what one of my boxes looks like
eventually after she is restored im potentially looking at keeping only this, az-and perhaps just that sanyo i got off you too.but thats it.until i can add either a 777 or m90 to it in the next month or 2, depending on what i get.but by then i aim to be a 3 box man only.
