Just received this beautiful, practically mint, perfectly working Goldstar TSR-951 from 1984. This 3-piece box weighs almost 22 pounds without 10 D batteries! It measures 29 7/8" Wide x 9 1/4" High x 8" Deep. It sports a five band EQ that goes as low as 63hz, Dolby noise reduction, normal, cro2, and metal tape recording, auto tape music sensor that can skip up to 5 songs, manual recording level, and 3 way speakers with true 6" woofers.
That is lovely.............The 3 piecer's are materialising from the early to mid 80's & being saved This is like my Uher, it has all you need without loads of stuff you don't!! Was never a fan of compo's but that is changing as more gems turn up!!..............
A three-piece that has Dolby, dual LED meters, and runs on 8 or more "D" batteries, is good in my book! Preferrably silver!
I love the Goldstar TSR-951, I picked one up over the summer, they are massive! I posted mine in the beer and boombox thread, it was nicely paired with Southern Tier French Toast Vanilla Ale, man I miss that brew. I've also picked up the Samsung P-745, it's the AKA of nickecles' UHER Power Port 2 above and no it's not in the wikiboombox! I've been searching more for Korean Boomboxes and Portables, they all have great build quality and heft, at least the early ones do. We saw very few Korean Products here before Hyundai Cars started showing up in the late 80's. I think Clark Forklifts were also off-shored and one of the first industrial items to enter our shores in the 80's but sales were dismal.
