Sharp GF9797E Gem arrives from Jeff!

[BoomboxLover48]

A very happy day for me! I recieved a fully restored Gem Sharp 9797E (Music Power 32Watts) from bro Ghettoboom767 (Jeff)

My hats off to you dear Jeff! He double boxed and packed it so well!

I needed lots of patience to take it all out. So also was my german shepherd puppy Duke watching me struggle to open it.

Trust me! this sounds "crystal clear", a high performance box, with autotuning! I am very impressed with the quality of sound. It doesn't have the bass of 9696 but sounds very good.

Brothers GF777 and GF 9696 were so happy to see their sibling.

The unit is in 'fantastic" condition. This is a perfect "lap box" that one can use. It's not as big or heavy as the 9696 or M70. The speaker grill color makes one drool.

Jeff, you are a credit to this beautiful site! Thank you so much!

Hi Bill,

I took the door out for polishing, so the picture is without the door. The door is like new now.

Thanks Jimmy!
It is fun to use the autotuning on this for lazy people like me.

This is really a hi-tech classic box.

Fine example of retro technology prior to the birth of ipod and smartphones!

That is correct! feather touch deck controls, auto tuning and all. Above all it is a Lap Box.

Thank you AE_Stereo, Bill, -GZ-, Ira, alfie, superlew , trippy1313, Jimmy, Reli and all for the kind words.

Yes, it is a very good looking and sweet sounding box to have. It is also very portable and decent sounding.
