SPATIAL STEREO - all together now

[Boom Shaka Laka]

This RR415 is really just a multiband radio with cassette. But it has all the ingredients of a mono boombox, so that's what it is! (Sorry, this one isn't spatial. )

Here is my smallest Philips: a D8200 microcassette boombox. Pretty cool, huh?

Very cool BSL, I hope I can find one of the rare microcassette boxes at the local Flea or Thrift some day.

Hey shakaboooom, love the microbox.

About the mono > here is the HORNYPHON version of it:

Hmmm, spatial mono would be interesting....

do you spatial fans think that spatial =
any different than wide mode or ambience or the other names, etc ?

True.
Also i think not all PHILIPS Spatial´s are sounding equal.
Because of the different speakers, sizes,qualitys,...

 

[Old school Scott]

No.

but, Magnavox invented the moving coil loud speaker, so they can call it's functions anything they want.
Sylvania co. is in there as well as Philco.

Love the Pics any more?

Cheers OSS


PS.I confess.
I do like to PRETEND that the word spatial means something different.

 

[ViennaSound]

..... invented the moving coil ......

Better Moving Sound!

 

[Börny]

Love the Pics any more?

There will be many more, be sure about that

So get the party started... :sin:

Part 2:

The big cheap one needs an big clean next time

Next one is the compact line with megatweeters

Second one

Together now
Check the jack!
Only the upper one owns it!

Another compact line (Mark2)

Here my all times favourite:
The red roller! :vespa:

Small "box" with big fun!

Only serie 1 owns the "wheel of fun"

Saved from the wreckage.
Little damage,but fully working

HORNYPHON called it EXPANDED STEREO !

Built like a tank

And just coming home from the friday-flea
Including this nice SOUNDMACHINE!

Found it in the last corner of the flea

To sad about the missing switch-cap

servo-tape

push it to the max!

Final look

Part 3 after the weekend....

 

[2steppa]

Those Philips units had some nice designs.

More I see that big Philips the more I like it, and the Red Roller...does look like a fun box, it's kinda cool I have to admit

 

[Börny]

The Hornyphone with the VU´s looks great, yes this looks like great buildquality .

So much Philips, so little time (to enjoy everything)! What an amazing collection, VS! I never get tired of looking at it and thinking about it.

When Ira and Miguel did a 3-way trade, it included a "bonus" Rotel store display light. http://www.boomboxery.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1505&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=rotel&start=20

I think one of the best ways to "dress up" a collection is to fill the spaces on the shelves between the boomboxes with promotional goodies. I probably have more Philips promotional junk than any other kind: toys, ashtrays, lighters, flags, banners, and - you guessed it - a store display light!

So... since I'm running out of Phil/Mag boomboxes to show (only have a few left), here are some shots of the Philips light...

First, in the daylight:

Then, in the daylight with a slightly more pleasant background:

Finally, in the dark (where it really knocks your eye out!):
