I want to restore my childhood boombox. I heard that this forum was the place to start. I can not find any information on this model. I want to replace the speakers, solid state parts like Caps ect.., EQ assembly, and add bluetooth. Any information on sources would be helpful. Thank you in advance! 20250316_224348.jpg20250316_223730.jpg20250316_223749.jpg

Very nice, I've never seen that one!
Same chassis as Clairtone 7979 but with different controls and deck

Yes it does seem to take styling cues from the clairtone 7979 but the clairtone is much bigger. Just compare the deck door and speaker proportions to the overall size.

I have not seen this model before.
You will have to look for speakers with appropriate dimensions and parameters (impedance).
As far as I can see there is no line input.
Adding a BT receiver will be a slightly more complicated job, but not impossible.
In such cases, the signal from the radio is interrupted and the BT is connected there.
For this purpose, one of the REC MUTE or SLEEP buttons can be used.
