One more step closer to complete my gf series collection

[riker1068]

But, the speakers are a bit stained and far left speaker looks torn like the 1000 I have. Is there a way to clean the speakers? Or should I just replace with a 777 set? Still in discussions to get the 919. Then that will leave only the 909 to complete the series.

Oooo, decisions, decisions... That missing center cap is a bitch.

 

[riker1068]

I have several caps from 777 speakers I can pull from. Or shall I say hope to be able to

Nice! I hope we get some good series pictures when you've nailed the full collection!!

Likely will look for a latte color or match to repaint the speakers. Still working on closing a deal on this. Of course Tokyo shipping is high.

Oh man....how long has it taken to get to this stage?

I'm going to put these in my 777:

So far it's been 9 years to get to this point. I'm still in discussion for the 919. I got these speakers for one of my 777 speaker swap outs. Still in the box of course. http://www.amazon.com/Blaupunkt-6-5-Inch-260-Watt-Component-Speaker/dp/B006STN2GG

Those look rad. Are those actually a transparent poly speaker where you could see light through the cone?

 

[riker1068]

They are blue. 92sent and 3ohm

9 years of hard work. Much respect!

Looking forward to seeing those 'Punkt's in there. Might be interested in doing the same

I actually considered putting them into the 1000.

Nice, I am a sucker for a box with the Japanese writing on

From seller. Unfortunately, this GF-919 has a some problem.
* There is a hole in the left speaker.
* Left speaker cap is Lost.
* Door hinge pin is broken.
* Left volume output is low

Needs repair, if you want it to work perfectly.

Great video....when the radio station was switched to NY, NY, that was super cool.

Makes me want to pull mine down off the shelf and finally do the full restoration I have been dreaming about

Thanks for sharing

Closed the deal today. Hopefully the weak left channel is an easy fix. Someone shared this with me today as well via facebook. I'll go this direction for speaker repair. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSbTbuZ-55Q&feature=player_detailpage

Interesting technique. I have a few speakers I could try this one.

Man, that guy in that video is freaking me out though. Looks like an even more psychotic Texas version of Ozzy
