GE Blockbuster vs M50...and the winner is.....

[mellymelsr]

the ge should be against the m70 thats were you will know how it sounds,, the m50 is no match for the ge.. the 9994 to me has better sound than the m70

...unfortunately the Blockbuster is no match for the M70...not even in the same league....but it is a nice little boomer.

Since the M70 is a 10 cell (15v) box, it really should only be compared against other 10 cell boxes. Likewise, 8 cell boxes should be compared against other 8 cell boxes. A 12V boombox operating at 15V would give higher performance results. In fact, the Sanyo M9994 being only an 8 cell boombox might perform much better in terms of power were it to be powered at 15 volts instead of the normal 12volts, and provided the over-voltage does not damage other components. Most amp modules can operate under a wide voltage range with different outputs depending upon the power input.

...that's an excellent point Norm...the only reason I would consider comparing the M9994k to an M70 is there are NO 8 cell boomers in its class so it has to step up to 10 cell boomers...the M70 may have the power advantage but I think the M9994k will more than hold it's own in the sound category...
