HiFi Clipper? 
Wonder what the Clipper stands for, does it double as a hair cutting device? 
Very cool, the loud color speaks 80's all the way.

A part of what's cool about this old stuff is there are little things like "clipper" that are amusing, I'm sure it made perfect sense to the designer back then.

too. All those angles and so reminds really of a clipper. And some kind of moving to the wind shape of the color and graphic scheme . And i dont mind a shaving machine . Love this walky 
That's the reason i'm wearin it like thatReli said:That is very cool looking!
But, the EQ settings would get messed up if you put it in your pocket

Very cool. It is very retro looking. 3 buttons on top means just play, ffw and stop? This puts in in the early 80's category.

dis ting was foe sellin in germany 1985!
I had a AKA of one of these in the mid 80s.
Mine was black with red & blue decals, & was badged as Saisho [Dixons own brand].
It served me well right up to the late 90s, it was a really solid little machine.

Just a little tidbit of info 
JUST a FYI
A Clipper is a fast light ship from the 17/18th C
so I guess portablitiy is implied there somewhere
Wiki
The term "clipper" most likely derives from the verb "clip", which in former times meant, among other things, to run or fly swiftly. Dryden, the English poet, used the word "clip" to describe the swift flight of a falcon in the 17th century when he said "And, with her eagerness the quarry missed, Straight flies at check, and clips it down the wind." The ships appeared to clip along the ocean water. The term "clip" became synonymous with "speed" and was also applied to fast horses and sailing ships. "To clip it," and "going at a good clip," are familiar expressions to this day.[1]
