Never thought I'd get a Dynasty Discolite!!!

Never in a million years did I think I'd get a famous Dynasty Discolite used by Madonna and Lady GaGa in music videos. My fiancÉ had one from new in 86' but gave it away about ten years ago. She tried getting it back with no luck. So when a member was offering it for trade I jumped. When I got it the battery cover was missing (if anyone has one PM me please) Also the power switch was shot and 11 LEDs were out and both deck non working. Well I fixed LEDs and I put new power switch in and that works. Dead decks were a little much due to know service manual so I took her to technician to get fixed.

I might have possible battery cover but if someone has one I'm willing to pay. This box doesn't actually sound half bad and line in works great. The lights are so awesome and my fiancÉ loves it. We listened to some Old  Skool sounds that she always played back in 80's. this is a keeper for sure!!!!  Love it...

nice score bb....always wanted one myself in my collection but i cant justify what people expect for them just because they have been in a couple of vids!

i think you have got yours maybe the best way depending on what the trade was???

Thanks guys. Even though the Sanyo was a well built fully working clean box the discolite is super clean and after I'm done will be fully working.. And because my fiancé had one and really wanted another in my collection I thought it was best to do trade and with prices so high on them I figured I would never have another chance at it...

Thanks guys.. Right now it's in shop to try and get decks working. One deck motor showed no power where other showed to much. These are easy decks to work on but the amp/tuner board is kind of difficult so I chose since the rest is minty to let a professional get them working. Wish me luck because the cost is going to be high but well worth it ....
