A 6-page booklet covering COLUMBIA’s Music System lineup from April 1985. The flagship G-2BK packs a dual cassette deck, turntable, FM/AM tuner with TV audio reception, and speakers SV-2BK into a full system at ¥94,800. The PairHarmony series (M-35, M-6) targets the compact end: the M-35 is billed as a “4-in-1 all-rounder” with turntable, cassette deck, radio, and mic mixer. The RN-W5 stereo boombox with dual deck rounds out the lineup, pitched as a cute portable companion. The last page features COLUMBIA’s own PASTEL LIVE DX1 cassette tape line.

| いつもいっしょの、キュートなダブル。 | The cute double, always together. |
| お気に入りのマイテープ、ハイスピードでお手のもの。Wデッキ搭載だから、カンタン操作でテープ編集ができちゃう。しかも、ハイスピードダビングOKなので、時間は約1/2オリジナルテープが即出来上り〜。 | Your favorite own tape, easy at high speed. Because it carries a W deck, tape editing can be done with simple operation. What's more, high-speed dubbing is OK, so an original tape is ready right away, in about 1/2 the time. |
| ラジオだけではものたりない。テレビの音も、ナイスキャッチ。コンサート、ベストテン番組、たったいまやってる生番組。楽しいTVプログラムもエアチェック。1ch〜12chまで、バッチリ楽しめちゃうゾ。 | Radio alone isn't enough. It catches TV sound nicely too. Concerts, “Best Ten” programs, live programs airing right now. You can air-check fun TV programs as well. From 1ch to 12ch, you'll enjoy it to the full. |
| お目あての曲、自動選曲。リクエストも、らくらく。Aデッキには、すばやく曲を呼びだせるデジタル表示の9曲飛び越し機構搭載。選曲キーを軽く“ピッ”。でお好みの曲が飛び出します。 | The song you're after, selected automatically. Requests too, with ease. Deck A carries a digital-display 9-song skip mechanism that calls up a song quickly. Lightly press the selection key with a “pi”, and the song you like pops out. |
| いい音、おまかせ、大迫力のステレオサウンド。大出力8W(EIAJ/DC)のハイパワーサウンドがハートにジンジン迫っちゃう。10cmウーハーとツィーターの2ウェイ4スピーカーが高音、低音バッチリ引き出します。 | Good sound, leave it to us: stereo sound with great impact. High-power sound with a large output of 8W (EIAJ/DC) thrills the heart. 2-way 4 speakers with 10 cm woofers and tweeters bring out both highs and lows. |
