My New i-931 Glossy :D

[TRC-911]

I just bought my new glossy 931 from a college student in 'Bama. $120 MIB

Not a bad deal to me. I am really surprised in the quality, the box is super sturdy and the sound is superb I was expecting it to be cobbled together and tinny but it feels very solid-like a boombox tank with 1/2 inch thick armor
Anyhow, i will post pics soon and I am thinking about picking some more up-Ipod compatibility is awesome as well

I had one and it didn't quite feel like a tank, actually it was more feather like. To me, the reissue TRC 931 sounds and feels better. I do plan on getting another for my daughter to play her mp3's.

Maybe you had a bad one. I have had a lot of boomboxes, and some were grails. My box feels like it is a single piece. No flex or rattles and it is a great looker. I agree the reissue sounds better but that's in the bass department. I wish it had a stereo mono feature to remove the static hiss on unclear stations though.

Another version of the 931 in 'Bama?!?!? Who knew there were two? I have the other (much older version) apparently.

Yep, the 2000 version....

Maybe Lasonic has improved them a little since they first came out. Hopefully there will be one at the 2010 meet. I would love to hear one.

Mine was made in 2009

The i931 - for what it is - is alright. I played mine indoors a couple of nights ago and was reminded of the hollow bass... I had to put it back on the shelf. However, if you set it up correctly, take it outside and crank up the volume, it sounds pretty good.

I'm waiting for Lasonic to come out with a black on black version. If/when they do, I'll cop that to go with my white on white i931. If not, I'll cop another 1st edition i931... Still, none are better than a 1st edition TRC-931.
