Wow!!! Very nice 3 piecer!! Twin antennas are almost always missing on a 3 piecer - not with this one! I'm a real fan of 3 piecers for one single reason - performance!!!

That Toshiba is a real looker too!

Nice score!

James.... :-)

Nice, that's a rare box. Are the surrounds ok? I know they're foam on all 4.

the speakers on this almost put a lasonic to shame with the cone movements , don't think i seen a speaker move that much before on a boombox.

Very nice. I like these very charismatic for a 3 piecer. There is an even rarer model called an RT-S95 with analogue Vu's
Similar styling.

Hey guys! Been a while. First I gotta tell you something about this radio. It kicks some serious A$$!! I had two. I don't really want to get into this deal that landed this radio in the hands of this super modest guy Floyd, but I'll let him tell you.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1438897384.812262.jpg

One was different than the other. The one I recently scored had the surrounds in really bad shape.

I called up Floyd and he said he'd do them for free. I kinda felt funny about that. Hope you guys can figure out what happened next. I offered up a payment in the form of, you guessed it the other Tosh. Am I crazy? Stupid? Nope. I just appreciate the goodness in people and pay it in ways I feel fits the bill. You see this isn't the first time he's done this for me. And yes he did it for free. This time I did what I feel was the right thing. Paid him in what we all like and love: BOOMBOX. I'm glad your happy brother. This won't be our last deal Floyd. Enjoy it, you deserve it brother. I wound up telling anyway. Sorry Floyd but these guys need to know what a true and honest dude you are. Not many left in this world. I salute you brother. (Damn that's sappy)

wow , thank you jr . i'm speechless , the bionic redneck tongue tied at last , to the relief of many lol.
i know it sounds stupid but i really do care about the welfare of the speakers more than money itself. like i said i'm a sucker for a speaker in need . like those crazy cat collecting women only i collect speakers . nothing like fixing something that was given up for dead . i spent the last 25+ years learning about and fixing speakers .

needless to say the loyalty of jr is epic and i really value that more than anything .

That is nice Floyd, I like how deep the unit is, it shows it has some guts and is no lightweight.
Very pretty also :yes:
i agree the depth of the unit is impressive , i had a lot of those thin 3 piecers and they just don't make much bass .

Pricey eBay!!! But real nice and if you look closely you'll notice it's the same one I gave to Floyd. The other version which has more wattage and a different color is the one I kept.

yeah and these kick the shiat out of my pc 55 , might not have the overall wattage but the bass farking kills. actually pretty much waste every 3 piecer i have , at this point its my second favorite box in my collection behind the mighty m90.

the toshiba is a damned war machine!.
