Default Re: Bush DAC90A Speaker Question

Here are some pictures of a dac90A I fitted with a car type 4ohm speaker as the original one had failed. It is possible to retain the valve radio chassis and add a bluetooth module. The existing wavechange switch needs to be changed for a three position one and some alterations to the wiring to connect the audio amplifier stage to the module are necessary. I did have to space the speaker away from the front grill to prevent the rubber roll surround from fouling it. I also ended up spray painting the chrome tweeter black so that you could not see it through the mesh.
I have both modified and original versions of this iconic set and enjoy them both, you will find a wealth of advice and practical advice on this forum if you do decide to restore your radio. Many of us started with a 90a.

Kind regards RT
