[nz boom]

holly crap got this from the sally's today and its one clean machine.only running on one channel at the moment so cant tell you how it sounds yet

SUPER lovely!!!
Really love the look of the 838, I think it's even nicer than an M70.

Hope you get her all rockin', Craig!



Rock On.

Its one of the "fully working" in my collection.

Great sound machine (not deeper bass, but the bass is there) a little pain to disassemble and GREATEST FM signal in my collection so far!!!

Cheers.

Now you just need to get a strap like mine

This is one of my most booming radio, I love it.
Congrats and good luck with fixing the channel issue.

Got to love those JVC's. That box does look tits with a green Blu_fuz strap

That box looks pretty mint. Looks like the nz thrift shops are the new hallowed ground for mint in the wild blaster finds

Really? What boxes are you comparing it to?

I have an 838, and it sounds like dick compared to every other midsize I own.

Granted, part of that could be because its bass and treble sliders don't work, but everything else is mint.........And even if they DID work,. I really doubt this box could generate decent bass. The speakers just don't seem cut out for it. They start distorting at only 4 clicks of the volume slider. We're talking 1978 here.
