I was in Radio Shack today going thru their part drawers and noticed these knobs, they may be used to replace missing knobs on some of your boxes, they look pretty good, Link and picture below:

Great find!

The only problem is that most boomboxes employ extended reach shouldered knobs for partially recessed shafts. Also, most replacement knobs (like this) use setscrews while originals use knurled knobs. The second issue isn't a deal breaker. But if the boombox requres extended reach knobs, these won't work.
