Sharp GF-9494 boombox or GF-9292 boombox or GF-9191 boombox

or Crown CSC-950 boombox in descending order

correct?

michiel - 2013-04-15 13:56

exactly in that order... The 9494 is my personal holy grail... As a kid I used to have a box that looked very similar... Some kind of big, no-name, light plastic thing with auto reverse... Think the word "big" actually was written down on it.... Had so much fun with that box, but it's quality was really shitty... Now I'm grown up, it's time to get the real thing.. The mighty 9494!..

 

The other boxes are just wanna haves with a lot of chrome and silver, I like that...

traveler - 2013-04-15 13:58

ok check back here in a few minutes

How cool is that!...your personal shopping list in picture form!...cool pic of some gorgeous boxes

michiel - 2013-04-15 14:21

Omg! Some people have everything, even nice weather!... Really lovely boxes! Very good picture!.. Really good to see them all together!.. The Crown looks a little bit dull next to the others, doesn't it?

 

If you put them on top of each other, I just make a big poster and my wall of sound is finished... Thanks for the pic!

prefer to wait until another day to take a stacked picture with the natural sunlight is in the correct alignment for  such a picture

lav.loo - 2013-04-15 14:29

you really should move the right antenna on the 9292 to the right a little

northerner - 2013-04-15 14:32

Didn't spot that Az...pictures ruined for me now lol!

michiel - 2013-04-15 14:36

Haha, I still want to own them! But it would make a very cool pic to stack them on top of each other!... Just be carefull with them, they look so lovely! Yup, the 9292 antenna looks funny...

michiel - 2013-04-15 14:46

Does anyone maybe have a picture of the 9494 look-a-like? Would be really cool to see it again. Don't think anybody has one, cause it was so bad build I can't imagine it would survive the years...

 

I can recall the word "big", the reverse buttons on the front were sort of orange reddish and there was some hugh wattage written on it.... Shame I can't even remember what brand it was.... 

walkgirl - 2013-04-15 14:54

Nononono!!, those radios are not good!, this is a real radio!!

michiel - 2013-04-16 12:20

Yessss!!! This is it!!!  Omg this brings back old memories!!  Like the guy says "dies ist nicht sehr gut". Completely right! This is the most crappy box that's ever made! I even reconize the cheap plastic sound when he pushes the play button!

michiel - 2013-04-16 12:58

northerner - 2013-04-22 06:49

Now you can't just tell us you got a box without posting a picture!

michiel - 2013-04-22 10:57

Here is the picture... Unfortunately lightning is very bad at the moment...

 

But what to do with the enormous package Dave shipped it in? It was so well packed that it would survive an atomic blast...lol... Can really recommend him!...

Nice tower!! Are they each sitting on two shelf brackets? Or are they secured? They look fab like that with just minimalist shelving

Congrats on the 9494

michiel - 2013-04-22 13:57

Yep, they are sitting on two shelf brackets.. Nice silver ones.. Security is not needed. Got some small rubber feet mounted on the brackets so the boxes don't move easily. it's very stable... Especially because they are filled with heavy d cells  Its easy to get one of, to play with it..
