- Who wants to watch almost ninety minutes of waffle about a hefty 1976 mono radiocassette boombox?! I admit this isn't a very good video. Look I had to compensate with a flashy thumbnail and everything. This repair took me about a month and a half in between work and such. For the first half of it I had rhinitis and sounded terrible, and there's just too much talking and not enough doing in the actual footage. It's more of a documentation of what happened. I think I need to change my method a bit on these videos. Still, I'm happy with the actual project outcome given the hurdles faced, and if you're really bored and have an hour and a half to kill...
I did find it fascinating just 'how very Sony' this Sony is... mono portable radiocassettes like this are hardly 'boomboxes' but these stout Japanese '70s models didn't mess around, and are quite cool in their way. This poor thing had been almost left for dead, so it lives again.
Some helpful resources (which cover the L model but it's almost the same):

Done a great job
We have this radio still working well. Loud and clear Love fr the Philippines
Always amazing to hear some sound come through for the first time.
Thank you for creating this video. I have a Sony CF 320 and a 310s. Only the radio works...I don't even know if any shops around to fix this nowadays. I have it in the house for nostalgia!!! ❤
Great work! Thanks for sharing us
The speaker grille design on that Sony is similar to some Sanyo models from that year onward.
I looked at the analog meter ~ it is a triple indicator; battery/tuning/VU, and when you took the front off the boombox and the meter’s window came off with it and you said “I will have to be careful around it” me: 🙄 - “can you take the meter window out of the boombox front and put it back on the movement to protect it?” I assume you found that and did it later. The meter even has “SONY” branded on it, there was a “battery check” button underneath it and you didn’t demonstrate if that was working; for the meter to indicate battery strength, it looked like it was indicating tuning signal when you were demonstrating the radio, but when playing a cassette; it was fluttering at the left hand end/rest position of the scale = I assume you haven’t done a VU calibration on the boombox so assuming the meter is supposed to be “swinging” when playing a cassette, and not just for recording? 🙂
I'm pretty sure the plastic cover wouldn't stay on, which is why I moved it aside and made that comment. With the casing together it's held in place. I was frankly amazed it worked at all given the state of the whole thing but I don't remember if I did any calibration of it. It's not a critical hifi machine to me, I just wanted it to function again after the sorry state it arrived in

من یکی از این مدل دارم ولی auxندارد و line in دارد فرق این دو چیست؟
چرا هدفون میزنم و صدا را زیاد میکنم صدا تا یک حدودی زیاد میشود و بیشتر از آن زیاد نمیشود آیا دستگاه مشکلی دارد؟؟
i have 2 of these. a 120v version and the 220v version. how hard is it to put the 120v power supply into the 220v version?
the 120v version is kind of broken and the 220v works well, but i prefer 120v.
may just be a case of swapping the transformers, but I have no idea how much work that would be
Is there a way to get one like this? Sony CF270 S or L
@@sajinkumar845 maybe eBay? That's where I find most of my old stuff
