This was the boom box / ghetto blaster that I had way back

Except I painted radioactive

Fairly portable (20lbs including 2 lbs of D size batteries), powerful, good sound quality, cassette tape (including Chrome and metal tape capability), FM/AM/shortwave, phono inputs so you could hook up a turntable.
I used it as my home stereo system for many years. If I win the lotto, I'm finding one and buying it.
