hi chaps,as my classic music centre has just packed in,im looking to get one of those amstrad boomboxes with the pull down turntable to play my vinyl on....i believe its model number 8060

i dont care how crap they are or bad reputation for poor sound quality,im just looking for something different to the run of the mill sharp vz that ive already had 2 of

doesnt have to be mint,can be rough,as long as the turntable works.

cheers in advance gents

andy

how very dare you!!

these come up quiet often and pretty cheap too, good luck Mate

why dont you look for a jvc one andy,

i was impressed with docs one at the meet

hey andy,its due to cost really,and from a couple of you tube clips ive seen i love the look of the amstrad to be honest....ill just have to remain optimistic guyscheers lav,hopefully one will crop up soon and si,i never really rated the vz,sorry

Heres one for you andy,

that's just had me in stitches i can just see andy walkin down the street with it lol sorry andy i had to mate

how about this magnavox andy, looks like you could microwave your dinner in it while you wait for record startin

seriously though az,that crown is very innovative for the sixties look at the similarities between that and a VZ

yeah i admit it's innovative but it's bloody ugly, how about the magnavox, iv'e heard of a tv dinner but never a stereo one lol, now that's real innovation

it truly is a shocker az,check this one out i can hear the austin powers theme tune now

 looks like it's got a curtain on it lol, and the colour.....shocking

here's another magnavox, similar to the amstrad andy's after

i can imagine some dodgy seventies porn movie music being played on that one az

i believe it belonged to burt reynolds lol

i wonder what all them functions are for, balance tone and volume lol

wow that's a sleek looking machine, never seen that one before, gotta say i love the look

that mitsubishi is nice docs never seen one before

Andy never rated the VZ?...that's not what he told me when he was trying to trade one for my Panny 5250!

andy never knows what he likes from one day to the next lol

I'd certainly like to have a "run of the mill Sharp VZ" !!

great ideas or compromises there guys,but they are all awful!and im sorry but the vz is a good looker but a crap sounder,bottom line lol-your right azz bro,i cant make up my mind buddy,but i know i dont want any of those dinosaurs

still wanting the amstrad im afraid....anyone have one to part with????
