Sony CFS-9000

This Sony CFS-9000 is at the later end of the vintage scale but is still a neat boombox.  It is a component design with detachable speakers as well as handle. Anybody familiar with these Sony’s knows that their APM speakers put out a lot of clean sound for their size.  In fact the box isn’t very big and it only weighs roughly 19 pounds.  Here are its features:

• AM FM and 5 SW bands
• 40 watts per channel with detachable speakers
• 7 band tuner
• High fidelity APM speakers
• Auto reverse tape playback
• 5 band graphic eq
• 8.6 kg weight
• CD/AUX/Phone input jacks
• 2 way bass refelx design
• 7 x7 cm woofers
• 4 cm cone tweeter
• Bass ports
• Automatic Music Sensor
• Dolby B noise reduction
• Timer Switch
• AC, 12v DC, or batteries

Most of the Sony CFS-9000’s have a 7 at the top left corner of the main unit. It represents the 7 bands that the box has.  It also came with a carrying case and strap that you don’t see too often.
