Hi guys, im new to the site and to collect boombox too!
I have started my collection with a Lasonic trc 975 and I am in the process of buying a Clairtone 7975....
Is it a good box?
Also I am looking for a JVC M70 ? Anyone has got one for sale?
Thanks!!!!

The Clairtone is a nice "fullsize" boombox with autoreverse tapedeck. I think it is made by Toshiba. 6,5" woofers, tweeters, sep. bass/treble, 8 D-cells, 3-4 watts RMS per channel, LED vu meters below the tape door. Early 80s. To me it looks a bit boring. Should sound ok and go pretty loud.
The JVC is similar size but louder with tighter bass and overall better sound. I want one, too.
Thanks man, it looks a bit boring to me too. I think i will definitely head for a JVC.
What Sanyo's good ones u guys know?

one jvc m70 has got a nice strap and is in excellent condition....this is gonna be expensive.......
none of us are ever accurate at prices --so we dont ( or should not) make 'price posts' here
but --if you can wait just one month --
there may be a dozen M70s on ebay --so just watch how the auctions end up
yeah, I agree for the price thing, its a good thing actually. Why are there gonna be more m70 next month?
oops --said it wrong
didnt mean just NEXT month --
i meant that the M70 is very popular --and its not unusual to see a dozen up for sale during any month --
but --as you are new - let me tell you that its most always better to buy boxes from our s2g members (like henry}
than from ebay --
so make an m70 wanted post in the 'wanted forum'
