Unliked designs yup... almost as nasty as that new WeAreRewind boombox. But at a tiny fraction of the cost. For old non-audiophile geezers who...
Awesome :thumbsup: I really like mine. Read about repairs and see inside details here in this long thread: Sony CF-1990 JDM aka CF-490S or...
I say they can't have been like that from the factory. I'm thinking maybe oxidation where the telescoping antenna's brass base post is in a press...
Soft touch buttons means a solenoid does the work for your lazy finger. So there is a lot to go wrong. Get a can of DeOxit if you don't already...
