A Nice Little Box for the 'Red' Collection

renegaderacer - 2013-05-28 16:11

Got this little beauty through today. It's a Panasonic RX-FM15L in great condition, which'll clean up a treat and adds to my ever growing fetish for red boxes! 

This is my 7th red one and number eight's on the way! 

 

 

CHeers,

I was never into mini boxes but these rd numbers do have some appeal!

As promised, a couple of shots of my red boxes together. I've got another one arriving in a few days and hopefully, a couple more in the not so distant future!

Got another for the collection yesterday. An Omega Musicmate. Possibly the worst box I'll ever own but the missus loves the look of it and it did come with a reel to reel tape!

northerner - 2013-06-04 03:02

Omega...a top quality brand lol!

 

Hey its red so why not...they do look good en masse

deliverance - 2013-06-04 03:15

nice collection and in the correct colour

I'm digging the red collection.....
Looks cool dude

renegaderacer - 2013-06-04 04:11

Cheers guys!

 

Wouldn't have got the Omega if it wasn't red but at least it makes me laugh. I've seen more features on a walkman. There's no rewind function or push button door release and you can open the door when the tape is playing as it's not held captive by the door. Strangley though, it does have dual volume controls for the speakers...

No that's a RED collection... must be most red boxes on the forum.  Congrats on continuing to add to your ensemble.   I too love the red but kinda hard to find especially in the med or large boxes.   I only have one red box but its the king sounding of mini's.  Think its the only red one in forum.  Have a titanium grey also really have a thing for this one.  Has treble and bass even loudness switch.  At medium to low vol. she is amazing.  Really plays loud but not much bass as u have to back off bass a lot to crank it.

The Sharp is a WQ-T231 with the twin, piggy-back tape decks. It actually has a really belts out a good, solid sound. Heavy old bugger too! I need a carry strap for it though.

 

The one on the right is a Philips Cubic Compo. I love the style of it and it plays really well and is a nice sound although it doesn't have the kick in the pants I thought it might have but nice box none the less.

Nice collection of reds RR !

Ωmega looks nice too .

I love the pic that shows them all together.

I m finding a lot of mini reds in various conditions at the flea

that i frequent.

Got a couple more through today and have to give a massive thanks out to Northener for parting with these red delights! 

The Sanyo still has its door sticker on and also a cool collection of period Smash Hits stickers! 

Going to have to put more shelves up soon! 

northerner - 2013-06-10 23:29

It's a pleasure to contribute to this record breaking red collection!...those stickers are cool aren't they! Glad you like em Giles
