If you could only have *two* Sharp boxes?

[Mick]

Guys, I have a Sharp 8686 at the moment and have spent ages searching the net and this forum for info on the various classic 80's Sharps.

I wanted to specifically ask which *two* models you collectors would keep it you could own no more as this would give a more balanced choice (maybe one big one small or whatever)?

I love the classic looks of the 8686/9494/9696 etc but the 9797 really appeals too - would welcome advice from here as to the best all rounder or whatever and whether to avoid the smaller 9090 models etc?

On a budget too - a 9696 would probably be favourite but here in the UK these are not so easy to find as in the US and not cheap...

So what would be your first and second choice Sharp?

This should be a poll....so far we have:
gf-777 1
vz-2000 5
gf-1000 8
gf-787 1
gf-508sb 1
gf-9000 1
gf-9696 3
gf-9797 2

and to answer your question above about the smaller 9090 boxes, yes please avoid them so as to keep the prices down on them.

Here is a beauty that you'd be missin'

With ever post you put up, I consider more and more starting a fan club for you...I just called my dad and had to break the news to him that I now have a new role model...he took it well

 

[BoomboxLover48]

GF777
GF9696 My personal fav.

 

[MONOLITHIC]

^ Beautiful GF-9696, looks crispy clean!!

 

[JustCruisin]

Boomboxlover48 what is that, a Beardoglion??

 

[wills15]

1. GF-777 - looks great during the day

2. WF-939 - awesome at night

I could never be bothered lugging a turntable box around, and I'd rather listen to records on a real stereo.

Borrowed pics (One from BoomboxLover48) . If I HAD TO only pick two I'd say these two.
