I've got a nice rack - II

vladi123456 - 2008-01-29 17:19

Here's my almost finalized collection. I might add Aiwa 880 and Sanyo 920 later this year.
- National Panasonic RX-5350
- JVC RC-M90
- Sharp GF-777
- Sony CFS-99
- National RX-7000
- Toshiba WX-1
- National Panasonic RX-4360
- JVC M70
- Sanyo BigBen
- Hitachi 8600
- Aiwa 955
- Sharp GF-9696
M90 has the best sound of anything else I have - by far. My next favorite is BigBen - insanely great sound. Everybody should get one of those!!

Ford93,
It has a little issue - when I listen to the radio - sometimes the left speaker starts playing at half volume, and when I turn it off and turn it back on in a few minutes - it plays normal again. Sounds like a good reason to get drunk and spray everything with some contact cleaner Big Grin
Gord, I can't even imagine how loud it could be in your house if you were to turn on even half of your boxes!! Wink

Awesome Vladi,just Awesome!!!!!!! Eek Eek

Hey Vlad super nice boxes. I love that Hitachi. You really feel that the Big Ben sounds second best of all your radios? I love mine but I like the m70 for sound way better. Just my opinion.

vladi123456 - 2008-01-30 07:28

Thanks Skippy!!

Ash, M70 has been my all time favorite, but after listening to it side by side with BigBen - I much prefer the BigBen's sound. Also, after I serviced my Sharp GF-777 - now it sounds better than M70 as well. In my opinion, GF-777 shares 3rd place with National RX-7000, and then M70 and National Panasonics. My Toshiba WX-1 is in need of service, so it's not included - yet! Smile

kid.sensation - 2008-01-30 09:19

now that looks great Smile

Congrats vladi, nice collection going on here!

retro.addict - 2008-01-30 11:17

Excellent setup, vladi! Eek Nod Yes

It looks like the amazing boxes which make up your collection are waiting their turn, as if when you're putting one back, they'll be thinking "Right, who's next?" Big Grin

I particularly like the M90, the RX-5350, the CFS-99 and the GF-9696. Cool

fuzzyduck - 2008-01-30 11:23

Superb collection and cool looking shelves! Cool

beatbox - 2008-01-30 12:24

Awesome collection with a nice range too! I really love the look of the Hitachi. Thanks for sharing those pics, they all look great on those racks.

Actually just looking at them again, those racks allow a fuller view of the boxes. A great idea!! Might have to get me some of those. Smile

vladi123456 - 2008-01-30 16:22

Thanks again everybody for the kind words - really appreciate that and also all the help and advice as far as me trying to repair them! Big Grin

transamguy1977 - 2008-01-30 22:39

Diverse collection!!!!!
I like it alot.
And your racks are way kool as well. Cool Cool

superb stash vladi nice going, hey just spray plenty of that spray into the faulty fm band selector then work it about 50 times quickly that should sort it out, good luck Smile

vladi123456 - 2008-01-31 07:20

Thanks transamguy1977!

Tim, I can not duplicate that problem with FM - I'm starting to think maybe a signal got screwed up or something - listened to it last night for a few hours - and everything was great. But in case it happenes again - what exactly did you mean by "faulty FM band selector"? Is that the one I use to switch from Tape to Radio to Phono?
But to tell you the truth - this M90 is the best souinding box - AND it's got some europian heritage too - I think the resale value should be up there with slightly used Rolls-Royces!! Big Grin

jimski - 2008-01-31 18:43

Yeah this is one hella of a rack..

appleknocker - 2008-01-31 18:52

Vladi, I think he means the little fm button where all the radio bands are. Spray it from the inside. I have heard that this can solve problems when jvc floyd and autobot were coaching me to help fix an m90.

vladi123456 - 2008-01-31 18:55

Oh cool - thanks Allen! If that happens again - I'll give it a nice warm deoxit bath Big Grin

retro.addict - 2008-02-01 07:49

Off-topic here Roll Eyes - sorry... Smile

I love your new Avatar, Transamguy! Cool

But IMO, a GF-777 would look better sitting where that Toshiba is. Wink Big Grin
