How many of the Sony's have 8" woofers and which ones?

@Chris

the CFS 77 I have has 8" woofers

sounds good - but  a loudness circuit or proper tone controls would have made it excellent

I love that cfs-f40!

You want to hear one chris lad. Superb.

Driptip

yes one of them works

the other has a fried motor - which I cannot find anywhere

i asked because mine rewind,  ffw, but it wont play, but the unit it self is very nice.

 i like it alot.

Here is mine Sony CF-580.

anyone here knows what the button next to the tuner knob is for?

it reads------(afc/iss) on/off.

hey beatlesfire, your unit looks amazing.

Thats a cobination automatic frequency control-interface surpress switch for locking in stations.

In case you've not seen it, here's my article on the fantastic Sony Cf-580, one of the most nicely constructed boombox's ever made !

I think, i might have to agree with you drew lad. I have a mint one, that doesn`t work. Would love to get it going.

i just read it, and i agree on the biuld quality of it.
thanks for sharing Drew,

i just got it and here it is.

i just received my sony 550A is a bit smaller than the 580 but is also built like a tank,

but it doesnt come with the ac cable, its got 4 pins , does anyone here have one of these cables that can show me how they look, i am gonna have to buy me one,

i appreciate your help guys.

It`s similar to this sort of thing, except, it has 4 lugs, and, is grey in colour.

thanks a lot litfan, hope some one here have one for sale,  or keep an eye out for one of them guys , thanks

Good stuff hugo. I remember, knocking my 550 off a shelf, onto the floor (about a 4ft drop). It didn`t even touch it. Built like a tank.

yes Litfan these machines are amazing, when i pick'em up if feels like i am lifting a freaking rock, love it.  

that 550 definately has the look of a tpr 940,

wonder which was first.

got to say the sony looks better with the twin antennas

The 580, has 2 aerials, the 550, has 1.

Here's My Sony's!

Sony CFD-DW97 DoDeCaHORN CD and Sony CFS-70!

Different Generations same Sony.

Here is my only Sony, looks a little different since the pic as its had a good clean and all knobs cleaned etc. (All knobs present they were removes for cleaning)

My 2 Sony love!
