Toshiba RT-9990 arrived on the slow boat yesterday, I always fancied one of these after gawking at Lee's and seeing one in the flesh during a trade at SpaceLobster's. It arrived in some of the best packaging I've seen. It literally took 15 minutes to unpack! As I say best packaging...grimiest, smelliest box I had in a while. Some pitting and green s##t on the chrome which worries me the most. Better get cracking on the clean up.

More re pics to follow later...

Congrats, did it come from the far east? Lots of saltwater corrosion over there..

A little better now. Sounds great, someone on here said it was sort of on a par with a 9994 which I think is fair. RCA connection is a little 'touchy' but a nice quality box with great performance.
Japanese model only which makes me think that the Japanese were keeping the best to themselves back in the day.

Super classic looking box man, and Cool Tweets. :rock:

Oh, and nice background gear too.

Cleaned up nice. It's funny how Toshiba lets you light up all the music search LED's.

Came up really nice! Love Japan radios.


How much did those pricks at customs sting you?

About £48. Not great but not horrid. It's the price you pay to get something exotic otherwise the stuff is very boring on EBay UK at the moment.
