Great question Deech. I had the pleasure of hearing one of these a few years before before the pandemic and they kick!

My want is a JVC-W300 in red.

this isnt the actual one i bought my friend....mine will take some months restoration at best.....changing the jap tuner and power supply to start with lad

Nothing fancy for me, just would like to finally secure a C100

 

[Radio raheem]

nothing beats a good c100 tre just to loud and big for me, good luck dude

the only box i would say is better is my big sony fh but that is not portable but then a hifi was never meant to be portable

A sharp gf 777 series. One that's a good example. I've had these but their either busted up or in rough condition.

 

[Radio raheem]

i nearly had a gf 1000 for a couple of hundred floyd lad but have no way of bidding on jap auctions in the uk as they are blocked now in the uk

the one that springs to mind are the 767 or gf 999 lad as these don't get chrome rot

I like to scan the SW bands but my satellit 700 is busted . Saw this panasonic a few times up here and yes , i like to get my hands on one .
This is the business

 

[trippy1313]

For me.... I think Either the Sharp Vz-2000, or the Japanese VZ-V2. So hard to fine with a good price because shipping is just insane for that tank.

 

[Radio raheem]

well my deal fell through was just in such bad condition

bought this instead. wanted one for about 15 years but as usual the silly prices..bought this for quarter of the going rate..pioneer sa 9800
dual mono amp.....but as usual beans and toast for me....and yup i have all the knobs

I had a similar Pioneer but it was literally twice the size it was one of the biggest amplifiers I've ever seen.

Can't remember the model number all I can say is this thing was easily twice the size of almost any house amp you've seen it was so big you couldn't put it in the cabinet it's so heavy I mean it's hard for one person to handle the thing.
