It was a lucky day yesterday for me while on a day off, walking around the city searching thrift stores , antique shops , record-cd-cassete shops and outdoor stalls as Spring is fighting to win over Winter, which is slowly fading away !
On this Sunny but windy day i managed to find a super rare boombox .
A box that if my mind serves me right is never seen before in any boombox forum.
It was early 2014 when i first got the Conion CRC-H76 (L version) <--- Mark this
One of my favourite and most beautiful Conions !
So yesterday the time was ripe to get a second one , only this time
it is the Conion CRC-H76 (F version)
Now the way i see them (please excuse me because i have a light condition of colour blindness and cant detect well green and red) the L version has a Darker Grey colour and the F version is a Silver coloured boomer.
Nevertheless they are both beautiful.
It was some years ago when i saw on the Austrian ebay site a Conion which was slightly different from the more common
Conion CRC-H58F, pictured below
The Continental Conion GA-9000 in a Silver colour layout
which was being sold for the West Germany market back in the days
so there must be some left nowadays in this part of the world.
The story of this species doesnt end here !! There is more..
As with the Conion CRC-H58F for the West Germany market and the equivalent of the
Conion CRC-H76L it was made the Continental Conion GA-9500
Continental was a brand from West Germany mostly active before the fall of the
Berlin Wall and the final end of the Cold War era . I wonder if German members know it ?
I guess it joined forces with Conion to make this particular radios .
