Hey guys and girls. My names David and i'm new to the forum.I have always been a fan of the vintage boom boxes and am happy to find that such forums exist after much searching. Every child of the 80’s remembers fondly their blaster. The most memorable moment for me was playing basket ball with my brother and friends in peak summer time listening to Nolan Thomas “yo little brotherâ€. The neighbours didn’t understand or appreciate the genre and/or volume of the music rupturing out of the massive speakers? The thing weighed more than I did when I was born! Fortunately (for most of us at least), Ghetto Blasters have paved way for more socially acceptable devices we can use to listen to our music in public such as the iPod.
This brings me to my next point of the rejuvenation of the i931 but the thought of the original lasonic TRC-931 and not the 99 re-release still makes me feel warm inside, and I can’t help but to think that If I lived in America or Japan perhaps i would have had the privilege to own such a cool boom box. This brings me to my next point. I am now on the hunt for an original good condition Lasonic TRC-931 which is proving almost impossible to find. When I do find one I am overruled by the us domestic demand for the items and the seller’s are more hesitant to ship internationally. This is why when I found this forum; it reinstalled hope for me to finally get my hands on the boom box of my dreams. So this is a little about me sorry for the essay.
Cheers
