Triple B,

That all white Lasonic is sweet. Monolithic has one as well. They used to be on eBay, but now I never seem them. I blew it by not getting one when I had the chance!

Your 931 is first generation right????

And of course the beautiful 975....Still can't pull my eyes off mine!

No Chris it is a 2nd edition. The 1st edition looks like this from around 1986 or so

 

[mellymelsr]

Those two big Lasonic's look awesome together... ...I gotta get me a Lasonic...soon...

 

[Gluecifer]

Wow, Chris!! Fanbloodytastic!
The 975 sounds BRUTAL, absoloutely one of my favourite sounds hands down on a portable, I'll be super interested in a comparison between it and the 935 as that's still on my list!

Your collection's kicking massive amounts of arse brother, great to see it grow!!



Rock On.

 

[WEYLAND/YUTANI CORP]

Is it still on your list Rick????? Mooo haha :grim:

 

[Gluecifer]

Hahah, HOW did I know you'd post that Nige??



Rock On.

 

[redbenjoe]

there is a now famous CNN TV show segment called " Ricks List "

 

[Lasonic TRC-920]

Only one thing left to do now....STACK'EM!

Awesome.

Congrats. Damn fine collection.

Thanks el cad, I'm really rounding out the Lasonic section. God help me if I get addicted to Sharps!

Just look at that tower of power!

I think the windows of your house will break once you turn up the volume all the way up to a Eddie Van Halen Solo!

OH MAN, that's what I have to do today....plug them both in today and crank up ERUPTION.

Oh yeah, about that rehab - take me with, I will need it and SOON!

No problem Fuz, we'll both go to rehab together....it makes ditching so much easier when you have someone to help escape with!

that is my favorite of all lasonic boxes. its huge and has all the right right looks. just a beautiful blaster and the others are great too.

There is no doubt Lasonic nailed the looks department on this one.

Chris it is a 2nd edition. The 1st edition looks like this from around 1986 or so

OK, I need to do some research and learn more on the 931. It's a bit confusing that they used the same name on so many versions.

Those two big Lasonic's look awesome together... ...I gotta get me a Lasonic...soon...

MM, it would be AWESOME to see some pictures of a 975 0r 935 next to that M90 of yours!

Wow, Chris!! Fanbloodytastic!

Thanks Rick, I have watched your reviews on this radio, seen your pictures and read your post's in total jealousy. Now I can finally stop living vicariously through you. Once I get my hands on a decent camera I will do the comparison. Seeing them stacked (as they are right now) I wish Lasonic made a third Jumbo so I could go 3 high and just as wide!

Of course it's totally possible to BUILD a hybrid...say a 935 with 975 speaker grills and a 975 tuner sticker!

What else can I say... beautiful !

 

[hemiguy2006]

Nice Lasonics.
Some day I will have to get myself a 931.

 

[Lasonic TRC-920]

Yep, the 931 is on "THE LIST" for sure! Monolithic pointed out a rare Lasonic on eBay a few weeks ago...I think it was a TRC-915. I should have grabbed it. That REALLY would have round out the Lasonic collection.

So much for being the guy who only collected Silver radio's

 

[docs]

I just traded a Lasonic 931 into my collection and it sounds great over the Unisef. I have yet to play it loud but so far I'm impressed with it. It's super clean too, very nice box.

 

[MONOLITHIC]

I just noticed something... The 975 might be the very first box I've seen WITHOUT a tape counter.

Interesting huh.

It also has no line out

 

[im_alan_partridge]

That box looks the muts nuts my friend, you have an awsome collection of lasonics.
Out of interest what is the dimensions of the 975, it looks humungus.

Of topic, good facial hair skills.

Thank you brother....both the 935 and 975 are 28 3/4 inches long, 14 1/4 tall & 6 1/4 deep.

This website does a great job at showing pictures of these radios and everyone does their best to show how big some of these radio are. But the truth of the matter is, some of there radios are so F'N big that pictures do not express!

Only in person can you really appreciate the size of a Sharp GF-777z, Conion C100F,M90 or one of these Lasonics. I have yet to see a J1 or a Whelely in person....but I can only imagine....

All that aside...this is a big radio.....good and loud!

Off topic...thanks man....growing a beard is my other hobby!

 

[blu_fuz]

You gotta get near a Wheely - Makes these big lasonics look small, very small. Funny too because the 975 is labeled "jumbo" when it truely is a shrimp next to a wheely

[oldskool69]

Way to go Chris! Nothing like building up a family of Lasonics!
