weird favourite boomboxes...

[rumble_under]

What are your favorite boom-boxes that may not be grails by any means? The ones that are good, but aren't highly sought after. Mine is this guy. It is very loud and very clear sounding and bassy even at the loudest volumes. It never seems to break up when cranked up.

I have to thank AZA for pointing this one out to me at the flea market as it was pretty hidden away. It was $30 but i got the guy down to $20. It was also pretty dirty but it cleaned up very nicely and looks like new and also works perfectly....the National Panasonic RX-5085SA. (also pardon the crappy photo, i took it with a nintendo ds haha)

I really use my Panasonic RX-C60 a lot. It is a good size with great sound and lots of col features and it record very well.
It has the same deck and the great MX play head as a lot of the higher end Panasonic's like the RX-C100,RX-5350.

Grundig RR-3000
Small, but great-looking as a "bedroom box" because it's brown.
Surprising amount of bass.
Great tape deck.
Great lighted tuner dial.

Love my Crown CSC935

Fairly so, yeah. Mine is the brown one which I think is the best because it has cool rings around the woofers.
