I remember those boom boxes from JVc. I used to have one like yours that had tucked away in the corner, a little 2 inch tv screen. it was a nice piece. the heavist boom box I remember was a singer. the speakers alone must have wayed about 15 pounds a piece. I know the rechargabler batteries of yester year wouldn't cut it in players like that. ----- Original Message ----- From: "DJ DOCTOR P" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC Audio Discussion List" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2007 7:08 PM Subject: Re: new rechargeable ready to go:
