    Lasonic boombox new in box

    Actually these were pretty good quality for the most part . Look at todays latest same type things , now those are bad . Yep one day this will hit the bay as i already have a super nice one with no box and the repro . The older repro sounds better than all the old ones , more bass .

    I just found a Lasonic boombox still in its box . It looks like new and all works . I found the older repro in box last year and thought that was impossible . This one is an old original .

    Musty smell is very hard to get rid of . I have delt with it on furniture and old radios . A very nice guy i know told me he puts all musty paperwork , books & stuff in the microwave oven and it kills the mold and dries out dampness . I dont know how long he leaves them in . Probably 30...
