Congrats on a real beauty Floyd. Cool

Ya ya ya, rub it in! Laugh Out Loud

I was very tempted to make an offer to Ira for that box but I took to long, my loss.

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-20 14:31

i got lucky man , i tell you this thing pure thumps.ira is a great guy .

success - 2008-03-20 14:33

The vumeter is VFD (fluorecent) ? .
It looks great with the lighted dial window !!!
Love it's design, remebers me some vintage recivers with dual readout ...
When was it launched ?. What's the speaker size (the woofer).

What RX one piece you think is at the same level ?. A RX7000 ?.
The best of this BBX is that's a Panasonic, sure.

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-20 14:36

hi the woofers are 6 1/2 iches the tweeters are 2 1/2 iches ,thank you !oh i think those meters are colored lcd display

i aint biting kitt ira is not worth the bother after seing off a good member gsbadbeamer and now this mind you it wasnt all redbenjoe's doing but why do people have to treat you like sheit i sell ira some m90 speakers all good offer him a price on the pana and he says he will keep it just goes to show what ira's word means F_u-c-k- all wich is a real shame, i thought he was one of the good guys to think we were getting on realy good at one point, REAL shame.

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-20 15:44

wtf Confused i thought i was opnening a panasonic and it turned into pandora's box ,is there a solution for this problem guy's cos i don't want to see anymore members lost over a damn radio

- 2008-03-20 15:50

floyd bro i would rather get on with all including ira but you just cant go walking over people like this ide like to hear what redbenjoe has to say on the matter i would much rather see this sorted out peacefully and amicably

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-20 16:03

me too man ,i can only testify that ira completed the deal as good or better than anyone i have dealt with so on my end i can only say what my experience was in my dealing with him ,anything else that was agreed upon between other members and how they were treated in those dealings unless stated in public are basically unknown to others .

Not expecting to rope anyone in, god knows there has been enough bloodshed as of late.

Without knowing all the details, sometimes things just get funny like that.

Look at all the work I did on the remotes......everyone saying yep, want one want one......they are done and ready.....time to sell em.....everyone is gone or has a reason not to buy.....hey sh it happens....life sucks.....just the way things go sometimes.

I personally like Ira, so hopefully everythiing works out.....floyd had no idea I'm sure.....its not like he is going to send it back....so just have to roll with it until the next one comes along.

kvmoore - 2008-03-20 16:53

Congrats JC Floyd on your newly acquired Panasonic RX-C100. You beat me to it. I sent "red" a PM and I was going to buy it but he had just sold it to you by the time I found out about it.

That's a mightly sweet looking box you have there. You're very fortunate to have one as I'm having a difficult time finding these myself, let alone one in "MINT" condition. I wonder how many of these were actually made. They seem to be rare.

Enjoy it.

redbenjoe - 2008-03-20 17:04

hey kvmoore -- i dont think they are very rare -- we see them on USA ebay about once per month --and LOTS of members here have them --

i bet you own one SOON Smile

kvmoore - 2008-03-20 17:09

Great!!! That's good to know. I'll just keep a look out for one.

Thanks.

Allow me to celebrate with you Floyd by flashing my VU meters! Congrats guy! I know you'll love it. Big Grin

My RX-C100:


Might I recommend you getting some acrylic white paint and clean those woofs up. You'll realy enjoy the flash then. Nod Yes

SUCCESS: The single piece units RX-7xxx/5xxx series sound great but can't thump like these. Thier main disadvantage is that the RX-C100 has dedicated enclosures for the speakers. The RX-C100, if I'm right, was released in '83. The woofs are 6.5"

Rim...I ain't got nothin but love for you man.Big Grin But whatever your beef with Ira...keep it private. Not public. No No It creates needless static and puts us who think a lot of you both in awkward positions. Leaving

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-20 17:32

thank you ,one things for sure it pumps solidly with no mercy it does sound similar to the m90 with the wide open airy sound and solid bass more so than the m90 only cos of the sealed speaker boxes.you can really feel the wind coming from these woofers.lol

Thanks for rubbing it in lol nah jk but you ought to try my modded m90 floyd wind comes out of the switches and evrywhere its so damn loud and bassy, i challenge you to mod an m90 infact i dare you lol Smile

redbenjoe - 2008-03-20 18:18

floyd - i know you would 'tend' to mod this one --
but i hope you find a C100 beater to mod. instead Smile

- 2008-03-20 18:25

redbenjoe have you still got the rx6400 or is it sold? if its not sold how much are you asking for it?

skippy1969 - 2008-03-20 18:37

SSSSAAAWWWWWEEEETTT!!!!! Congrats my man,nice unit. Nod Yes

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-20 18:55

thanks guys i would never mod a good box without being able to put it back the way it was as good as new,i would rate this box as the 3 piece m90 sounding box ,an m90 is nothing to sneeze at either,.i guess you could say more bass than the conion or m90 better highs than the conion but the highs are equal to the m90 so its the pefect combo louder and cleaner than the conion louder and equal to the m90 in highs but the rxc100 hhas better bass.

masterblaster84 - 2008-03-20 19:22

Oh man Floyd are you trying to make me kick my own arse for not going for it? Big Grin

now i am sick Laugh Out Loud like i said nice catch bro.

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-20 19:30

the whole comparison thing is like apples and oranges ,just like exotic cars once you get a farrari then you must have a lamborghini next thing you know you can't live without a porche ,where does it end .lol

It doesn't that's what makes us sick and makes the process fun. Nod Yes

redbenjoe - 2008-03-20 19:43

it doesnt end Smile

and just when some members 'think' they are complete and happy with their years of accumulations

if any of us would ever hit some RANDOM pages on the BBDB -- then we find out that we dont even have 20% of the great boxes out there

i admit to having BBDB fear !!

jlf - 2008-03-20 19:59

The BBDB is certainly a weapon to be used with respect. I can only open it on special occasions, when I think Ive seen it all. It brings me back down to Earth by smashing my limited knowledge to bits.

I need one of these JVC's... I always think Im going to try one someday, and never do.

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-20 20:02

most boombox collecting is buying ferrari's on a chevy budget.

Well, gee Tim, now that you have publicly disparaged him and set the stage for a confrontation...... one just HAS TO WONDER since you are already ''ready to go'' and all, that you are running your mouth simply to make that happen in an attempt to make RBJ look like the bad guy.


Look Tim, in the end it was decision who to sell the radio to, and, GEE, after a few rounds of getting slagged off on by you publicly, imagine everyone's shock and wonder that he decided to sell it to JVC.

Perhaps if you would shut your mouth and sit on your hands whenever you feel the overwhelming urge to speak out like this, and god knows folks have tried and been more than patient with your outburst for a few years now, PERHAPS you would have ended up with the radio.

For the record, I have asked RBJ to look past your comments and not respond in kind.



Completely, and totally, unacceptable behavior Tim.

sinister - 2008-03-21 08:48

see what you did floyd No No

vladi123456 - 2008-03-21 09:37

Wow...Tim and Ira - I think this is all just a huge misunderstanding - you guys really should talk via PM.

ned.209 - 2008-03-21 21:01

congrats on the box Floyd, no better buachaill (boy) as we say here in Ireland. god damn what is going on?! i think we need a group course of valium

redbenjoe - 2008-03-21 21:12

Ned - take a look at off-topic section -- the thread is called 'alot wrong'

and then you will see that this problem is all gone -- we are fine -- no valium Smile

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-22 05:28

thanks guys ,if you only knew how often i drooled for this box.,.lol

boomboxnut - 2008-03-23 15:33

Hi Floyd. I love your RX-C100. That sure is a beauty! I'll bet it does crank. Eek Cool

jvc.floyd - 2008-03-23 16:00

thanks alot! Wink

jvc.floyd - 2008-04-06 14:41

with new foams and whiter woofers.



i tell you this box is brutally loud and sounds awesome!

jvc.floyd - 2008-04-06 14:46

the speakers



redbenjoe - 2008-04-06 14:48

looks really beautiful -
is it now ALMOST in the same quality sound league as your custom super doomers??

jvc.floyd - 2008-04-06 14:52

yes just on a smaller scale ,i think this box is just superb i mean it's that simple.it's not the most sophisticated but it has what it needs and that great in it self. it has great features but the best ones are sound and volume,build quality and awesome looks = a winner to me.

oldskool69 - 2008-04-07 15:09

Allright! I knew you would obey my commands posted earlier! Laugh Out Loud Now if I could only get that damn dent out of my right speaker cap!Mad I got it that way though when I bought it.

Looks good Floyd! Big Grin

Try duct tape (get pretty good kind, not the cheap-o.... you tape it on (in, but try not to get it outside) the dent and pull away quickly. That usually works. It may take a few pulls to get it all to pop out....

jvc.floyd - 2008-04-07 18:53

the woofers have aluminum dust caps once there dented its almost impossible to make em look right again.the best method to fix the dented plastic ones is to use a vacume cleaner hose it pulls the dent right out.
