Radiolabs Super 909
 
I have a DX 398 that has recently developed a bad speaker. I can buy a
replacement very inexpensivly on the internet and replace it myself but
I was wondering if it might be better to send it to Radiolabs and have
the extensive Super 909 conversion done on it for $109.95 USD as they
change the speaker as one of their mods.

Anyone have any experience with Th Radiolabs Super 909 conversion? Does
it work as well as they say? I am actually very happy with my radio
except for the recent speaker trouble but the mods do sound interesting.

Thanks in advance

Andy :)

Look here, much cheaper. Having owned (past tense) a Super 909, save
your money.

Ley Kiwa do the speaker replacement for you and you decide on the audio
mods from them.

Thanks for your reply...

It is Kiwa that I have been in contact with. They have a better quality
replacement speaker for $5 USD and I was considering that.

I just replaced the speaker in both of my 909/398's. Got the
replacement speakers for $1 each. Amazing difference. If you go
he

http://www.acidplanet.com/artist.asp?PID=673036&t=9611

and press play, you can hear the difference.

If you wish to read about my play-by-play on the replacement...it is in
recent messages posted to the Yahoo 398 group.

I am not much of a techie and I was able to make this repair. If II
can help you further let me know.

I've got a Sangean Super 909 that I got from Radiolabs already modded.
.... I can tell you that I'm extremely happy with my Super 909.

Likewise. The radio was greatly improved over the stock (mine is the
RS incarnation).

Thanks to everyone who replied! I am still not decided but this extra
information helps!

All the best and 73s

Buy the Super909. It's a great radio. I love mine... sounds a lot
better than the stock and performance is also much better. I've had
both.
