i agree!!!
prolly gonna carry this one around til i get my 7980 up and running.

fatdog or anyone else, whats your take on runnin this thing without a 220V adapter? i didnt blast the volume yet but i noticed half way up the lights started to flicker.

Well, it's possible. BUT... the boombox isn't getting anywhere near the power it needs to operate at its full potential. You're basically giving it half the power of what it is designed for. That is why the lights are dimming when you turn it up. I would be more worried about messing up the transformer.

Very cool!
I'm glad you like it!
As for running it on 120 volts.
I've never had an issue........
I'm telling you,I've used it for days before on 120 volts with no problems.
I think your worrying to much........
Just enjoy the smooooth bass it gives out.
I cranked it up at my house and the light never flickered,in fact the VU's stayed at 5 bars even cranked.
Thanks again GZ!
