$50 goes to whoever can find a bigger box with so few features

[Reli]

I will paypal you $50 if you can find a box with a lower ratio of features to size than this General Sound GS-1018. This thing only has L/R Volume, Band, and Function. No input jacks, no CRO2 switch, no stereo wide, no bass & treble .....not even a Tone knob. And look how they spelled Los Angeles

[Hisrudeness]

[Superduper]

Why'd you get it?

 

[Northerner]

[lupogtiboy]

To be fair, it does have an auto stop cassette deck! What more do you need?!

 

[dubout]

It looks like a prop in those furniture shops, made by somebody who knows boomboxes only from description.

Are there actually tweeters behind those 'blinds'?

How loud does it get? It says High Power ...

I think it's beautiful, would buy on sight.

Why'd you get it?

I didn't, but someone else did. Check it out.....

After all it's a "General" Sound, isn't it?

I don't know why I zeroed in on that either Caution. I'd have bought the box just for that error. My bar is set too low

 

[Tinman]

I can't believe someone actually bought that for $200 + shipping.

A bit more bling this one. Not terrible to look at.

 

[blu_fuz]

Looks like they put that together with whatever was left on that production run LOL.

This appears to be a stripped-down version of the Intercord:

@Reli it definitely is the poor relative of the Intercord, a nice unit with a unique look and a pleasant sound

Yes any box with white woofers is gold! Glad to hear it sounds good too

Is it weird that I want to see that General Sound box absolutely immaculately restored to better than new condition?
