Dads system from 'RISKY BUSINESS' Phase Linear?
 

I now find myself looking through old movies for hi-fi gear.

In the beginning, the dad tells intergalatic warlord XENU - ooops! I mean Tom Cruise -

"Too much bass. How did the EQ get like this? Don't touch my gear while I am gone, my house - my rules."

I think I will tell my kid - "Break my gear and I will destroy you!"

Anyway, looks like Phase Linear gear. Anyone know for sure?

EDIT: OMG Rebecca DeMornay is so hot! Unedited Cinemax version is so much better than the TBS one!

:smoke: herbs

Are you trying to say that there was something AND someone in that movie besides a train, a staircase, a windowsill, and Rebecca DeMornay?

No way!!! I'll have to watch it again.

yeah thats a phase linear 7000 cassette deck--a monster at 38 lbs and 1350 bucks from 1979.

At first I was a bit confused. Do I pay more attention to the Porche, the stereo, or the girl?

Then I got my prioritys straight.

How dare Joel put his hands all over her!?!

That poor EQ...

Really cool deck. Wonder what the rest of the system was?

Rebecca DeMornay never did much for me, but a Porsche 928 was one of my dream cars back then.

She never did much for me either...but that was only because I've never met her. :D

when she is in the window "SPROING" are you ready joel ????? HELL YEAH

It looked like Phase Linear as well. I am not sure about the EQ, but there appears to be a tuner that has the little silver rack handles.

I just watched it last night.....to me the cassette deck looked like a pioneer floroscan model of sorts

Phaes Linear 7000 cassette deck.

with rebecca demornay in the movie how could you notice anything else...

I heard she's not very good at setting equalizers. I mean, just LOOK at that thing!

Pioneer made this model, as well as others for Phase Linear. Here is the Pioneer CT-A1 version:

Man, that is a ton of buttons on a tape deck! I'm glad I don't listen to cassette! haha.

I had written about the cool silver rack system in the movie "Private Benjamin" but all I got was comments on Goldie Hawn. Ok, she was hot then but I want to know what the equipment was, still!

Wonder how that model spec'd out compared to Nakamichis? Phase Linear's tuner was a big box without much in it, but looked cool. But they sure got the styling together on that cassette deck. Cool meters. Very cool.
