Some years ago I got hold of this amazing Pioneer jukebox
It’s a Pioneer Laser Juke model CJ-V51, with dual CD players with a cassette system for the CD’s
According to tag with the serial number it was built in Japan in July 1993
The whole lower half is a massive speaker with a 300 watt amplifier.
Two 10” subwoofers, four 4” midrange speakers and two 2,5” tweeters on the side.
The biggest problem was getting the 148 kg brute home and up our stairs.
The Amplifier has a built-in 240 volt power outlet, that turns on and off together with the amplifier.
I used this and the line in connection for my Bluetooth conversion.
When it’s powered on by the remote, it powers up the Bluetooth reciever, and let’s you play your favourite tunes from the phone, while rotating the album art, in all its colourful splendour.

Do you have a manual?
Best regards from Søren T
Not as such.
The Pioneer Jukebox has an amplifier with a AUX input (standard Phono), and an extra 220v plug so that an extra CD player can be connected.
I have mounted a Philips Bluetooth Adapter, with a minijack to Phono adapter to these to internal plugs.
The Philips Bluetooth adapter can no longer be bought, but I’ve used a much smaller and niftier Sandberg Bluetooth Audio Adapter for a newer project.
Hi Peter,just been reserching the same jukebox,do you know where to get spare parts? mine is having issues with the rotating menu,we’ve just pulled it apart and found one of the cogs connected to the belt has cracked and another on its way out.Any info on this would be greatly appreciate. Thanks,Tamara
Hej.
jeg har købt den samme model som du har men jeg har ikke mulighed for at skure op og ned for musikken, da fjernbetjeningen ikke var med.
ved du om man kan købe et kit til den?
Hej Ronni.
Desværre ved jeg ikke så meget om fjernbetjeningsdelen.
Men hvis man kan finde frekvenserne på nettet, så burde den kunne erstattes med en af de mange universal fjernbetjeninger der ude.
Skal du afspille CD’ere på den, eller konverterer du til bluetooth?
Der er en fysisk knap på forstærkeren, der kan sættes til maks ønsket lydsstyrke, og hvis du kører bluetooth, så styrer du alligevel lydstyrken på telefonen.
Mvh Peter
Hej Peter
jeg har fået sat en MP3 afspiller som er købt i usa. Hvor man kan bruge nummer keypad til at skifte sangene med😊
Men jeg ville gerne kunne styre volumen ude fra.
jeg har ikke kunne finde nogen fjernbetjening som virker i nu desvære
