Lasonic Mint 935. What would you pay?

[Vintage Man]

Wow. drooling away now too!

 

[Lasonic TRC-920]

There are some damn nice 935's in this world, but if your possible next dream box is what your describing, it could be something special. It should be in the Boomboxery family where it can be PROPERLY cared for!

one thing i can say is i owned a brand new 935 back around 1989/1990 i saw it at the luskin's store in gaithersburg maryland . i used to go there to drool over car stereo equipment and ended up seeing the lasonic sitting up on the shelf and it was the display model and the only one they had and it was marked down because it was discontinued . i think i paid 150 some bucks for it.maybe less. about the same day gun's and roses appetite for destruction came out and let me tell you that ****ing 935 was and still is a one bad ass sounding loud radio.

my favorite is the 935 with the high fidelity grills where you can't see the speakers. only because that's the first model really the only models i ever owned.

'Hi Fidelity' - I think someone was high all right!!

Sweet looking box - gotta love chrome on black - awesome!

might not be true high fidelity but these boxes really do sound awesome and they can pound out some sound.

Oh rockin. She looks well worth the outlay!

If anyone wants to sell me a nice 935 for 2-400 please let me know!
These weren't sold in .au and 90% of the ebay listings for them don't ship to .au either.



Rock On.

I just sold My 935 ($200), waiting to ship it & already regretting it. Mine does have a better sound than My 975 too.

 

[Vintage Man]

Thanks bro. That was a good deal.

It will be loved for many years. thanks bro

IMO, still the best of the big three Lasonic's (935, 951,975) and always the cheapest
It also doesn't suffer from the 920/931 function switch problem as it's all push button.

I'm with Fuz on the price range.

Be a hell of an addition to the family!

thank you. I belive I have seen your YouTube video on functionally and features.
as well as inside the box.

In Chris's video, Chris said both 935 and 975 boxes don't have microphones or recording capabilities. So I never bothered to try to record and thought that is just a fake button like those fake mid tweeters in both boxes.

Today, I put an empty cassette and checked it. To my great surprise found out that it records. My 975 has a microphone and records pretty good.

May be they put that feature on some of the 975s and didn't install on others. Did I get lucky?

Not sure why Chris said that, they all record through voice.

Here's mic on 975 and 935.

Not to be a pain but....... Appetite For Destruction was released on July 27th in 1987. I remember seeing a TRC 931 for sale around that time at Woolworths in Boston for $99.
