and he gave me a Fisher PH492. !!! yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! frikkin sweet!

did not expect that.

went into his sitting room, loadsa biggies as you would expect, and i just dived on the fisher. id never seen one before, whereas i have seen >most< of the others in one guise or another. the discolite was a tad funky. never seen a 9696 in the flesh, or the popular crown with the top handles... im waffling.... i though the og lasonic was heavier than i expected.

anyways, he gave me a 492! and i havnt ripped it apart yet. has anyone got a nice big frontal shot of a 490 for a comparison please? sweet. hello all.

ned.209 - 2009-03-13 05:36

heyyy guys whats crackin? yah still here in NZ, reckon im headin soon tho, just gotta sell my van. a very long extended summer holiday it twas. i ran across a few ghettos here, mainly the black cd player rx series that Davelc loves, dem a loud radio no lie. next was a kaboom, dang id never heard one before, the bass was fantastic. subs are the way forward. the dang kabooms got no line in tho so its a bit, well, redundant -unfortunately. i found it on a rubbish tip, it was wet and a bit fried... it thought it had a tape deck and aux, but it didnt... and now the 492. i tell thee, its a good lookin object. nice to hear from all you guys Smile

ned.209 - 2009-03-13 05:47

so this is the kaboom killer? somebody on here reckoned so....

its ugly. but then so is the kaboom. i think it was the Bauhaus school of thought... form follows function... hell in that case its beautiful..

Not mine - just some shots that I saved a long time ago. Wink

Hi Ned, good to see you back brother. 492's have Chrome capped speakers, Blue speaker grill trim rings/Silver grills and a Blue Fisher label on the cassette door. Wink Pic of mine while working on the flightline at my AirBase.
