Volvo 4 Stereo ESD model RX-93 UK 200 1979

Pleezed to halps!

Wondering whether your Volvo 4 Stereo ESD model RX-93 UK has undergone any sort of restoration like you see the label on Art's Volvo 4 Stereo ESD images?

Sorry to obsess. Futzing with stereo's in RWD Volvo can be painful. The stock interior the 4" shallow speakers in the front doors. The tone range and watt output limit of the Volvo radios like yours made by (I guess) Mitsubishi and 1990-1991 made by Alpine with the separate amp. The sort of terrible Dynaudio paper cone speakers that have those offset, not square, speaker screw holes.

Though I understand you want the original, from the factory appearance. It can help a tape cassette / stereo radio from the 1970s to have an inspection and service for the tape transport mechanism (else may eats your tasty cassettes with tasty music on the tape!). An idea-r.

When you swap out the Volvo Am Radio, screws secure the side of the radio chassis in the radio cubby slot. Sorry to repeat, yet you need to support the back of the radio somehow.

Glad that helps, yet please continue to verify wiring configuration.

What how about your door speakers? Are these original also?

Sorry to go on.

Glad that halps.

Where's Uncle Old Duke?!?!?!?

Great heavy aluminum alloy speaker enclosure made for Volvo. Though by now you have to replace the three paper cone speakers inside, and maybe the cross over capacitors! Sound great, yet no-wheres to go. Use them as in-apartment speakers occasionally. Yet in-awful-smelly-vermin-filled-apartments-dumps in cities like terrible Saint Louis, MO, all headphone all the time.



Have these in my 1990 (made in 1989) 240 (li'l red) Wagon in C-pillar!





On the same wires, wired in parallel (reducing ohms resistance load) to the rear door speakers in the li'l red wagon.

May rout new wire through the driver door today and reinstall the after market CD receiver head unit. Found the bracket Volvo uses to support the rear of the radio weight. When I got this 245 in 2004, the radio weight was sitting on the coolant lines and wires inside the center console dash! Turrible!

Happy Pandemic Hollow-Dayze.

Don't blame me, I voted for Finland and Switzerland and Norway and Canada!

Buttermilk and Porkchop Boyeeeeeeeeeeee!
