    A fresh find online, an original JVC shoulder strap. It could use a little love, but still looks incredible with this black/red design with white stitching! I plan to use it mainly for display. I purchased a replica strap from blu_fuz many years ago, and I find the replica to be far better...

    Hey there!

    Thought I’d post a little intro just in case anyone was interested. I’m a big fan of boomboxes, like everyone else here. I remember getting my first system (Sharp GX-CD130X) for Christmas when I was just a wee lad of 7 :lol: - see attached photo of it on the very day I received it. I then fell...

    JVC with accessories

    Amazing what cool stuff people still got laying around in basements and garages together with other junk. Just picked up this JVC PC5. It got the always lost back cover in place, JVC 12V car adapter, original remote, DIN cable and best of all, original JVC bag. The drivers is replaced at some...

    VICTOR DC-5 also know as JVC DC-7 arrived

    I'm so happy with that! I have two combines now - one vertical vinyl and one horizontal. Is he amazingly handsome? P.S. Yes, you are right, that is the Big brother of more common distributed JVC DC-33, more brutal and natural, I can say :beer2:

    RC-X610

    Hello! I would like to know where I can do a solder to connect a jack input on this device which does a very good job, except than that. It does have a mic input but it's a mix/mic input that results in a very low volume. Apparently it could be done between the fm preamp and the main amp. But...

    My little M70 project

    I just got myself a JVC RC-M70L the other day. It's a long time since I had a classic boom box. I think it is in good shape. It works with batteries and line power. The sound is good and strong, though sometimes a bit of crackle when sliding the volume controls and sometimes the left channel...

    Any top tips for aerial tips? JVC 9475 Restoration

    Just picked up this little JVC 9475 for £10 :-) . It's built like a tank but the aerial tips have gone walkies. Does anyone know how to reattach the missing ends on the aerials? I've extended them by inserting a tight fitting screw but would appreciate any advice you can offer.

    Found a couple of JVC's for sale...

    Browsing my local craigslist I found a JVC RC-656C and an RC-727LB for sale for $100 each. Both decks are non functional. The 727 is from the 70's if I'm not mistaken...the VU-meter bulb is shot and one the right channel is maxed out like its stuck. Should I go for it?
