yea.. not a fan after listening to this.. i think they are discounting these due to the horrible sound.. not worth the normal asking price.. $50 bucks maybe.. cool looking though..

Let me be the first to say if anybody out there is looking for a Bluetooth speaker that can play USB flash drive Etc this is definitely worth considering it sounds really good the bass actually is really good you can noticeably hear the Bass from around 30 Hertz which is really good for any type of a speaker I don't care what it is 20 Hertz is just the speaker moving in and out moving air 30 is when you start hearing actual Bass the tweeters I mean dude buy it that's all I'm going to say I've listened to lots of different things this thing is really good and it has ample power it's not like the Brooklyn boom box it actually does have some power

@kimballlewis5030 Ай бұрын

I picked up the Brooklyn Boombox before I left California wish it was a little bit louder wish they would have used Vu meters instead of the digital lights but it plays a lot of different things cassette CD USB I mean it basically plays a lot of stuff so you can't really complain too much . Basically I was looking for a Bluetooth speaker I do have an EXO's 9 I've had it for quite some time but I wanted something a little different the EXO's 9 TB very boomy like just a different sound signature so I picked this up because I figured well hey let's see what it's about

How does deep bass compare to the jvc kaboom and the Panasonic dt680? Thank you!!!!

@kyfeam Ай бұрын

nothing beats the bass of the JVC.. outside of the Sharp GX-M10 or the newer version Sharp GX-BT9X with Bluetooth.. this speaker is more in line with the Panasonic if i were to compare.. and thats not a bad thing.. definitely worth the cash..

I have the exact same JVC RV-NB20, I bought it new many years ago, I have original remote control that came with it (which is RM-SRVNB20A) the Bluetooth Mod is what I'm interested in, it's near mint, and any paint and cosmetic issues I can handle no problem. I really want more details on the Bluetooth mod. Curious why you moved the remote sensor from where it was originally but that's just curiosity. warmest regards -M

@kyfeam 2 ай бұрын

i didnt move the remote sensor.. the hole i put in on the bottom was for the remote sensor for the Bluetooth module.. i no longer have the boombox.. gave it to a close friend.. he loves it.. i have made allot of advances since i posted this.. like using a latch switching circuit instead of a physical on/off switch.. plus i plan on incorporating Lithium Ion batteries in the near future to these awesome classics.. cool that you bought the JVC new.. it's the last of the quality RV-NB series Kabooms.. in your case you can just use a Bluetooth dongle from Amazon to achieve what i did without needing to do electrical modding.. just buy one of these.. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B4JTKF6T/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 good luck!

@kimballlewis5030 Ай бұрын

As far as plugging it in it does have a built-in lithium ion battery as far as I know basically when the unit is full you want to unplug it you don't want to leave it plugged in all the time because you're leaving the battery at 100% capacity and with lithium ion batteries they like to be charged up and then used the worst thing you can do to any battery is keep it fully charged all the time unless it's some kind of lead acid battery those are the only batteries that like to be at 100% all the time

I am of the old school opinion that if a modern "boombox" doesn't have a tape deck and/or CD player and/or AC adapter, it's not worth buying. I don't like rechargeable battery/Bluetooth models (the battery does not last long and I never use Bluetooth anyway).

nothin wrong with that.. i view it more as a convenience.. i did experiment in my older videos trying to modernize classic boomboxes.. but now i just add Bluetooth and a Lithium ion battery pack.. but not to mint condition or special boomboxes that have gathered a following.. like the GE Blockbuster or Realistic SCR-8.. i also have a Sharp VZ-2000 that will be reassembled soon.. with no mods.. and a real cool 1979 Sharp GF-8585 with the original box and original Sharp batteries! but lesser known older boomboxes i will mod..

Берем подешевле айпод или айфон и устанавливаем на него Neutron player, на нем включаем функцию Media Sever Renderer и получаем смарт вай фай колонку, на которую по сети можно отправлять любую музыку из плееров, поддерживающих DLNA, например можно из Bubbleupnp отправлять из TIDAL поток хоть до 192/24 - все поддерживает сорванец. Супер звук!! Супер басы!!! Профит!!! 2. Берем три блока литиевых элементов 18650 по 3 шт и устанавливаем вместо батареек со штекером для подзарядки. У меня при полном заряде работает всю неделю по 3 часа в день где то!!!! Супер профит!! 3. Берем два твитера для авто желательно с металлической сеткой в одном стиле, которые имеют собственный фильтр и подключаем параллельно к среднечастотным динамикам и получаем крутую 3-х полосную систему!!!

Everything including the cassette deck still work flawlessly. I did find out that the old pet peeve of the subwoofer ends becoming sticky over time if you just let it alone, it eventually quits. Most people ruined the looks by bleaching them. Just had to wait it out.

I figured it out before but i forgot how to (classic) and I cannot find anywhere how to save a radio station.

if like other radios.. you might need to long press the preset number once set on the station you wish to save.. also older radios like the Sony may require batteries to be installed to save the stations in memory.. even if the radio is plugged into the wall.. if neither of these methods work.. there may be original instruction manuals saved online in the form of a PDF.. the CFD-770 manual should work the same as the CFD-775.. i actually found it quite easily using Google search.. here is the link.. www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/sony/cfd-770.shtml hope this helps!
