Well as many of you might know I have a love affair with Aiwas,especially the CS880....... :wub:
Well I've been wanting to get the CS880's Japanese brother the CS-J88.
Well recently JVC Floyd gave me a chance to own my very own.
So here it is with my CS880E I bought from from Max.
The only real down fall as with most JDM boxes the tuner only goes to 90.0 mhz and it is a 100 volt box,but I still love it! The Tuner works on a couple of local talk/classical music stations and the cassette works great and the line in as well.
Thanks very much Floyd,it is really nice!

I hope you enjoy that CS-J88, Skippy, I spent hours cleaning that thing up!

No worries about passing it on, Floyd. I'm glad you were able to have fun with it and get it fully working. Good to see it's still with a collector.

Awesome clean up job Owen And it was very cool getting passed down from collector to collector. You, Scott and Floyd are great peeps

 

[skippy1969]

WOW!!!!! You did a great job Owen.........
It went to a good home,I love having it here with all my other Aiwa's.....

 

[oldskool69]

Excellent effort on the cleanup and great effort in keeping it in the family! Only one problem...no rubber ducky to accompany the Aiwa during it's bath!

This Aiwas are the only one "nonLED"boomers which i would keep.
Looking so..... completed together.
Really nice that they stays in the family.

great unit is the aiwa cs880 in the heavyweight one piece stakes,still want to obtain one after 6 years but they are priced way out of my market-great job you have done here on the cleaning,nice to see such a thorough job and then you reap the rewards afterwards
