Here's my beloved CP-99W. The Sansui CP-7 is better known and gets all the attention because it sure looks great and is compact. The sansui CP-99W on the other hand has the looks of later model hollow cheap stuff. However, don't let the looks fool you, this is the real deal. This is one of my most powerful boomboxes. You need to be careful when operating the volume control. The deck buttons are all metal, and the logic controls feel like it's a home deck. Oh and did I mention they have autoreverse decks. Plus it's rare as heck. This is probably one of the last boomboxes I'd get rid of in my collection. There is a Sony in my collection that looks a little like this with built in CD and that one also is a keeper and uber rare.

Disclaimer: I do not own the cardboard box. Only the radio. But think it's cool to show this photo and see that it calls out the color. Very cool

I do own the radio though.

My apologies if the OP was intending on posters showing their original box and radio. I wish I had the boxes to a few of my vintage radios. I have the boxes to all of my more modern purchases.

I bought one of these from the original owner but I sold it soon after I should have kept that damn thing I can tell you it is one of the highest quality boomboxes that can be had and very powerful indeed.

I got the "X-BASS" version, :-O:thumbsup::-P:agree:. I found this in a local NFM store, thought I'd buy it "just because." Don't know what it is, what it sounds like, or anything about it, and I've never even opened it, not like I needed another music squawk box, I have plenty all over the house anyways. Box says you can record from the tape to the MP3 or SD card ports. Well, being "in-the-box", it's nothing special because you can get these new, probably ebay or something since I doubt they have more in the stores. But it qualifies for this thread so, here it is.
