Boom Boxes

Check it out !

Even my old Hitachi is here :-

 

All them sexy looking boom boxes have turned me on

Now please pass me the sick bowl.

 

When turned on you look for the sick bowl?

Odd.

 

My best mate had one of these:



I had the next model down in the range which had an analogue tuner instead of the digital one seen here. They were both fine machines that made a very agreeable sound.

 

Hi,

My brother still has his blaster. It still gets used to this day. It is very similar to this JVC.



My brother has a slightly newer version with auto reverse cassette player. It sounds very good for a Blaster. It has a phono input which I used with the deck I had at the time. (Elite Rock II).

Weighed a ton, but was fun to use.

Got to like that Marantz PMS 6000 with the built-in TT:



And for those into live recordings, there's this Aiwa:

 

Seen that website before but had forgotten the URL. Nice one there Mr Rock. :beer:

They've got a pic of the last boombox I ever owned:

... well, I actually owned the RX-CT900 but the picture is apparently of an RX-CT950 but looks as near as damn it the same. A bit limited in the ultimate loudness stakes but certainly one of the most un-boxy sounding portable stereos I've ever heard. I regret selling that old Panasonic now. They certainly don't make them like that anymore, you really could call them units portable hi-fi. :MILD:

Notice there was no mention on that site of Hitachi's infamous 3D Super Woofer stereos that were very prevailant in the 80's. Almost everyone knew someone else who owned one I reckon. Haven't been able to find many pics but here's a few:

 

Hitachi 3D Super Woofer Eighties portable stereo

Hi, I'm new to this group. I've been searching for a boombox I had as a kid and I want to get it again. I don't know the exact model number but it was from this series (3D Super Woofer) and it had a very distinctive feature: an input jack on the side for a "mix in mic". does anyone have any info on this, like the model number, to help me track it down. Or ideally if anyone is selling one.
Thanks!
