Sharp VZ 777

[hardmen]

Hello all...

Bought this one for $50,00 but when I catch, I see LOTS of parts missing and the currency here right now it's too high for buy some parts arround the world.

I don't like dead boxes im my house, so I decide to make a little custom/mod.

Rip out the Record player section, put a Chinese Amp and the M70 woofers on main unit, two woofers (for aesthetics purposes) and BAMM... ...Killer loud sound!!

I dig it!

 

[nikonfoo]

very cool
Looks like thats the way it came

 

[goodman]

Wow, looks very good!!!
I like how you use the space for SD card player and second speakers ...

is it correct:
Cassette and radio work with original speakers,
SD card player work with second speakers...

Actually looks pretty good for a custom blaster! Nice.

Goodman.

The box dosen't powers up, a friend says that one isn't a LOUDER blaster... ...comes with No speakers, no back portion cabinet for speakers, no plate that hide the arm record mechanism, no plate that hide the deck mechanism, no sliders... ...a beater!!

I bought a pair of M70 woofers from Caution and use on the mains in this custom VZ..

The center woofers, for now, it's only aesthetics (different inpedance than the M70s speakers and when I plug all plugged togheter in a serial config, the final result produces a not affordable sound quality)!!

Cheers.

show and tell on the construction please
very smooth do you have making photos
also love the name vz 777
I bought one a long time ago but really never enjoyed listening to vinyl on it
I love to see the record and to put the needle down and watch it spin
simple guy
It just felt like putting a tape in
Also the switch problem bad design or materials
But thats just me
I know a lot of people love them

I have no pics of the process, but nothing special... ...a piece of plywood, some vynil that reproduce brushed alluminum, a Chinese Amp and Lead Acid Battery.

Some pics of the conditions, when arrives.

So much parts not be there, but the size and space, have potential for good results.

I will put a video on our basketball playground.

Cheers.

The only operational woofers, are from M70 in the original VZ cabinets (without the back portion).

Cheers.

i have the back portions for the speakers you need.

 

[hardmen]

i have the back portions for the speakers you need.

How Much for??
Included the FH-7 Grills... (the problem is the currency between US$ and Brazilian "Real")

And, let me see a pic of your VZ 777, mine is based os yours!!

Cheers.

I had to do a double take when I saw "VZ 777".

That look fantastic.

BTW, are there any turntable parts left. I am looking for a small PC board.

That Retr0Bright is magic!
