This is my second boom box after a long time .I first had a philips cubic compo(without fm stereo /all black) bought by dad some time in 85/86 and i used that till the late 90s. I always wanted to buy a good system with bass i dont like em 2.1(too much bass /no mids) etc always interested in 2 channel stuff. so decided to buy a JVC gx-68 ,but they are off the shelves.Only some sony and philips are there now in the micro segment with very less power.
Had listened to a similar panny at a friend in the mid 90s, was impressed .I was just surfing and found a person selling it for 30$ (great condition). Never thought i will having it in 2012.
Most of the people on boomboxery looks interested in 80S stuff . But why hate the 90s i am sure there were some great boxes that time and some good looking as well.I know about bad quality and stuff but even my 80s cubic compo had bad plastic. Lots of 90s boxes are missing i think, i use to watch them in shop windows thinking i will get them sometimes.
Ok a quick review.
Rx-CT 995 all things working except the decks they are not dead but all triggers are working.The recording deck get stuck up & the other plays in one direction but gets stuck sometime. I know i can easily get it repaired but i dont wanna mess with it .I am happy wit the line in and tuner. the remote works and there is also a mic with a broken wire i can easily fix it. Like the 4.4 pds its greaaat the treble stays , bass is good :superduper: . its like having two subs .Amazing bass for a plastic box.
No distortion at full volume.The bass is not boomy .the mids are just a bit less crispy but not that bad.I love the motorised volume knob.Great built quality.Battery life is ok if you want it to last long turn off the X-bass.
Looks like they really put lots of efforts in this one .there must be some reasons why they did not put 6" woofers .
This panny is here to stay.

) and play through line in. About the battery thing i dont know about holding the power button i will try at home. For using it on batteries i just pull out the power chord from the back . that all i know as i couldn't find any thing in the user manual.
