Well boys and girls I just got this rare, I have never seen one of a Korean built AKA to the C126. Just as the Conion C100 Korean model this one is also stripped down but looks and sounds great, it even had the plastic protective covers on some of front face still. I just don't know the manufacturing company who built it because back plate is in Korean. I sent message to seller to let me know what plate says... I got this for a steal from new Korean eBay seller thanku_market. He packed pretty good but I told him next time to put more bubble wrap first. He did put some unlike other Asian sellers plus layered with thick styrofoam and brand new box. The good thing was absolutely no damage :-) He also shipped Expedited which only took 3 days for me to get :thumbsup:

Unit wasn't to dirty but bottom deck didn't play and door wouldn't open. Top deck played and ff great. Am/FM comes in excellent and absolutely nothing missing. There were all new belts already so I just had to clean, lube and demagnetize decks and only problem with play mode on bottom deck was pinch roller needed to be cleaned good. Right side led output wasn't working so I narrowed it down a couple broken wires. The tuner needle was also missing but went through my parts and was able to make one out of another needle.

So now she's all cleaned up and looking and sounding fabulous. Everything is fully functional which is how I like it. Only other downfall is she is stripped to the bone, not even a tape counter. But surprisingly sounds great. So if you get an itch and find this seller selling a bbx you want I can only say I got great deal and packing wasn't bad at all :thumbsup:

Wow, that is really cool looking! Can you post a close-up of the section under the AM freqeuncy dial I think it says 'Automatic press/eject control system (the graphic part under that). Does it light up?

:thumbsup:

What's behind that big ass chrome tweeter is what I wanna know. Is it real? Is there a tweeter behind that over sized chrome dust cap? And the woofers, they look like they're free edge. Great looking box. I almost pulled the trigger on it but no inputs made me shy away.

I was umm-ing and ahh-ing over that one for a long while, thinking it was the closest to a TC-999 I was going to get. Glad it went to someone here

Yeah Jr got it for a song and dance :thumbsup: the midrange are fake, just big chrome caps and it has piezo tweeters. But the sound is truly amazing for this one. As for woofers it has the type edge that's curved down (not sure what its called) but there not foam, more like paper. There in excellent condition and surprisingly they produce good bass :yes:

That's cool, what I really need is the tuner needle if you have it and if there's an original antenna ;-)

I was always wondering how the c-126/tc-999 will look in some other colors, I kinda like this black variant :yes:
