Picked up a Trident CX-452F today for $40 off Gumtree. Very happy with it. Made in Japan and feels very solid. I believe this is an AKA for a Conion model, but i'm not sure which one.
This is the first Boombox i have acquired that actually has all functions operational. The sound is very nice, packing 10 Watts in total. One nice feature is that it has Mono, Stereo and Wide. I've never had the pleasure of Wide before, but it sure sounds big. Otherwise, it has Normal and Chrome Tape, a Mixing function, Sleep for the Radio, and AM, FM, SW 1 and SW 2. On the side it has Aux, Mic and Phones inputs. Has a nice VU meter and left and right Channel level LED's on the front.
The antenna was broken thought that was easy to fix by just taking off the back and slotting a new one in.
It does have a crack in the top and a few scratches and dings, but overall she has cleaned up very well. It's all character anyway. I especially like the roll bars next to the speakers at the front. Makes it look like it's ready for some serious outdoor booming.
And it takes 8 D batteries. And it measures: 51 cm W x 28cm H.
Here's some pics of her freshly detailed:
