Hi y'all Ghettoblaster Rappers & Hip Hoppers, just a 15 y/o Teenager here who takes a passion for Wolves and Audio. Especially Boomboxes/Ghettoblasters.
I'm interested in getting into the hobby, and am just getting started. I currently own a 1990 General Electric 3-5667A, a Sanyo U4S6 from the 90's, and a 1979 Sanyo M9909... yeah, nothing special. But I do have a video for at least two of them. Since my Galaxy S9's 64GB internal Storage is filled to the brim and therefore I can't really upload the third video to YouTube, Images will have to do.
Aside from these cheap Cassette recorders, I also have a few Modern 'Ghettoblasters' which aren't cheap crap. An Aiwa Exos-9 (9002) with the onboard DSP Compressor removed, and without the grille (although I do have it) so it looks real badass. Have a few videos on it as well.
The other 'modern' Ghettoblaster is a Parts Express Executive 200 Watt Bluetooth speaker kit. It's a nice way to get into DIY, but I ended up slapping the stock 12V Dayton Audio LBB-3 Battery module in there, and the Tang Band W5-1139SMF driver that came included is ridiculously inefficient, so it clips real easily. Replacing the 12V module with a more powerful one would be difficult to do, as you don't get much room to work with and I already cherish my Exos-9 vastly more. However I can't take it apart to reuse the parts, and my mother is currently the user of the device. So I'm simply just not going to screw with it.
But of course, here's a video of that damned thing when I finished it:
Anyway, that just about wraps it up for my glorious Introduction. Hope y'all got a good chuckle or two out of it.
