hi there gang
heres an interesting question-on many old sharp gf's ive owned in the past, theres a little label on many of them saying:"imported by staar s.a,brussels,belgium".
who were they, and what exactly did they do-where they a dealer,based in belgium,and if so whay does it only appear on a lot of old sharp gf's?
anyone have any ideas?

thats something ive often wondered about too andy

I remember that sticker, I noted that my Hitachi TRK-8290 has a little silver label on the back saying "imported by staar s.a,brussels,belgium". So it's not just Sharp boxes that have this. I don't know any information about the sticker sorry, I just know that my Hitachi has it too. I will take a pic soon.

thanks R.A, like andy iv,e only ever seen it on the sharp models, i have had lots of hitachi,s but never seen it on them, pic would be nice cheers R.A.

hey guys-hopefully TPR will know when he's about-or perhaps any of our belgian contributors have any ideas?
my new gf6500 has the sticker on too-i believe it to be an importer of audio-thats all id know-hopefully we'll get 2 know soon fellas.

It is an engeneering company.
