Can you tell us more about the Philips D8814 (Elephant) I am interested in that particular box! How does it sound compared to others?Any special functions?
Amazing collection, I was just looking up some boxes and most of the hits were your collection. I've started "mounting" some of my smaller units, I use left over maple or birch plywood from a kitchen rebuild I'm doing and put up strips of shelving maybe 6-8" wide. I mount these on the wall using heavy duty brackets, the ones with the welded support, not the cheap stamped brackets. I can fit a lot of units up high out of reach and respectable looking, although even the little guys are heavy and need full support every 16" (that's the spacing on US studs).
@mrp32Dave , you got an amazing collection of beautiful boxes. my favorites from your collection: Sony FH-7 ( everybody loves FH-7) Aiwa CS-R10 Sanyo M7830LG ( need to find one) Fisher PH-M88 Sanyo M-X66
Happy to own just one off your list, the Sony FH-7 though mine is a mk2. Only missing the carry handle (what else?!) but I have a spare tape deck, a cd-player albeit in black and the battery box too. Love this thing, sounds amazing and I'll never part with it.
