An A4 booklet, 22 pages - the SANYO general catalog for March 1987. The headline of the release is the w.CD3 CD boombox (PH-WCD3) with Built-in Surround and a one-touch mode switch, alongside the 4WD Surround U4 series with detachable satellite speakers - the top model UA-W990 runs four channels with dual cassette decks and a timer. The JJ portable line gets a major update under the “NEW HARD CONCEPT” banner: a new body with a 23mm motor, 163g weight smaller than a cassette case, with select models adding a TV tuner and monitor speaker. Double U4 dual-cassette boomboxes fill the mid-range, with separate sections for NP radios, THE REVERSE tapes, home karaoke PAT (including the PAT-K03X with vocal changer at ¥89,000) and the CUTE telephone series.
