Welcome aboard, jmax!

While the C7 isn't particularly rare, I see more of the other C numbers than I do the C7 and especially the C9. It is definitely a nice box. I'm pretty sure a few of our members have one and can offer more info than me. I only have the C4.

I have the c7 It's nice but my cass deck does not work :annoyed: They are a real grind to fix :annoyed: Still if it's minty and working,why not,these sanyos are cool. I have a number of the c's again this is heavy and well built,i would like mine alot more if the tape worked! Oh Yeah Welcome aboard!

i have a flawless one and it is a very decent boombox.
i also seem to remember there being the same model put out with yamaha on the case instead of yamaha.
down side of this fine boombox. phono line in. theres ways to get around that.
handle design is also dumb. sorry thats the only way i can describe it. too much sliding of plastic bits against metal bits on the handle.
battery holder design is also a bit odd.
they do have really nice sound. i liked mine a lot more than the pc11 i had but thats just me.
heavy. i like mine a lot good tape deck good radio nice speakers in mdf cabinets.
some of the last good sanyo stuff i think.

what is the problem with the phono in?im actually using mine rite now with a dual cs1258 it is working perfect and believe it or not no feedback lol im impressed.

theres no problem with the phono in at all if your are plugging a phonograph into it.
if you are pluggin in a mp3 player then the problem is that nice riaa preamp in the phono in
