Very good score Roman, I love mine, it's hard to tell from your photo, but are the speaker grills dark blue or black?

Thanks boys.
Never thought i would get such unit in good old austria. :no:

Best thing is trading/selling/buying boxes from local collectors friends.
No shipping fear, you see what you get. :thumbsup:

Some switch caps have been missing, got them from his broken 777.
The unit works only on 100volts.
So now playing only on batteries. :blush:
Will look out for an transformator.

@terry: seems to be dark blue.
Not looked about that in the bad indoor light. :blush:

@börny: boombox counter has exploded. :lol:
But the collection is always changing.
I will do some other tradings with him next time.
More soon.... :afro:
