Wreck-Cel: Rebuilding the Audio Sonic TBS-1150 vintage boombox

[@danielfalotico2776]

I would buy this in a heartbeat. I owned this model years ago.

I gotta say, watching you bring this Rexcel literally back from the grave is what inspired me to finally restore my Promax J-1 that I had collecting dust on my shelf. It had its own share of issues I had to address (cracked handle brackets, cracked case) just to name a few. Your ingenuity helped me think outside the box to not only repair it properly, but bring it as close to new as could be accomplished with my limited experience working on boomboxes. I’ll eventually post all the work I did on KZbin, but I do have highlights on my IG page, robassassin. Again, thank you for the inspiration, look forward to one day seeing that masterpiece in person, & take my Blaunkton aka to see its twin lol. ✌️😎📻

I’ve seen this box in person at Chris’s boom room in Italy. What a transformation. The box really pops with charisma!

[@rory693]

That chrome is nice. Makes all the difference. As usual you’re the master of understanding and bringing these big black boxes back to life.

Thanks man

Damn bro that is a lot of work on that case, it just shows what a little patience and skill can do. This box is truly saved as i dont think many people would of had the foresight to see how good it could be once again. Sterling work.

Thank you. It's taken a lot of trial and error ro figure this stuff out. Hopefully others will see this video and apply it to their project. Thanks for your comments

Bonjour, travail soigné comme toujours, et quel résultat🎉✨️🎆👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Je tente de réparer mon audio sonic tbs 1100 mais n'arrive pas à régler la vitesse des lecteurs de cassette qui tourne au ralenti. Avez-vous des idées à me suggérer s'il vous plait? Merci 🙏

[@williamriker4889]

Pretty cool to have the skill.

[@boomboxmagazine6185]

Where can I find the pause buttons?

[@costinelsul2575]

Coooool...

[@rory693]

The lugs on the side are for some kind of strap?

[@boomboxmagazine6185]

Yes, it uses a guitar strap
