Sorry, but I have sold the boombox since. It really was a nice unit, but I did have to put a bit of work into it. The Speaker connections needed resoldering, and I replaced the backlight on the tuner.

I miss the box though... :-( I have gotten an FH-818 recently, so that might help ease the pain somewhat. The linear loading tape deck was pretty neat! I also have an FH-404 that has very similar speakers...

Holy Crap....I live in the same city and missed this one :'-( Well done...both of you!

gonna say,on my fh404 ive got the advanced pistonic ones,like in sony fh150r 's pic above,but my 404 doesnt have the spectrum analiser as such,but a lovely 2 way flashy meter which is awesome-its my first fh and it makes me wonder why ive never sought one out before

That is one fabulous 'ghetteaux blasteur' - aka Chuck Norris's Walkman. Sony had the same 'linear skate loading' cassette mechanism on their SL-HF 750 Betamax VCRs.

That FH-909 is just plain sexy. I love the layback tape mechanism.

I love it!
