I love this radio by Sanyo and I know they make great boomboxes and had the M9994 when I was a teen in 79. I also used to be able to hookup a turntable bc it had a phono input and pre amp. I remember buying a Sony boombox in the mid 80’s and thought all boomboxes you could plug a turntable and the volume was very low and I was puzzled why it wouldn’t run a turntable and found out much later that you needed a pre amp. I just saw that Sanyo M9994 going for one for almost $1k and Jen in better condition going for $3k. Back when I was a teen, I only knew one person with the same radio bc it costed about $280. In 1979 and a lot of money for kid and even for adults. It’s considered one of the top 10 boomboxes from the 80’s now and highly collectible. I want to buy this same model and at fist looking at the single tape version and came across this model on eBay today. Most of these radios the tape needs to be fixed and I wish changing turn belt was like changing the battery or needle on a turntable and not to take apart, But thanks for showing us how to repair these and I will look at this video after I type. So I only watched the beginning and you just bought this model and it needed to be fixed ? Bc when you first opened the package and were testing, I thought it was fixed and you just got it back from having it repaired. Yeah, I need to be more patient and write after watching,

The other model I love is the single Sanyo M 7700 with the 2 antennas. Also, the 6 speaker dual Sanyo MW800. Wow, there’s so many wires inside this unit and like looking inside a modern car engine and complex. So after getting the radio and playing with it, you found things wrong with your new radio and started working in right away? Just wondering bc did you already know something was wrong with this radio before buying or you just wanted to check out ? One thing I hate when working on a new radio or aidio equipment is taking it apart bc I don’t know how they snap open and hate to break or chip something. I like to keep all my items as the same condition and even used and don’t want to be the person to break these vintage radios, also many of these vintage radios the plastic is brittle and crack easy, even have to be more careful when shipping . About 2 years ago I sold a Sanyo M9994 and packed it very well and it weighed like 25 lbs. Even qrappoa bath towel around it after bobble wrapping and the buyer said there was something missing a screw on the body and bc of that, it and a small crack. They also throw those around like a basketball at the USPS and don’t put much care.

Also , I’m glad this one has a gray back and a saw another Sanyo model tyat had a white back and many are now yellow. Glad you’re restoring these great machines from the past and giving them a new life,

Also many of these the chrome buttons get oxidized when exposed to water and moisture. I did see a Sanyo mini boombox that was yellow color and called “Outdoors” and looks really cool.

So the trick is to buy these vintage units cheap bc they usually need a lot of work?

Very Nice Performance after Servicing and Restoration. How much price Sir

[@restoration-RC-Studio]

Thank you for your kind words, not for sale yet. It is in my collection. I also have a silver and a red one. The red one is in very poor condition, missing a few buttons and the left side audio cassette door.
