Seems fitting to make my first post now I've just bought my first boombox. Like Cretster, a few threads below, I too am from the sunny Isle of Man in the British Isles. I had various cheap hi-fi's (portable and otherwise) through my youth and now in my second youth*, I have a dedicated playroom full of Lego and old video game consoles and home computers. I thought the ideal thing to finish the retro room off nicely would be a vintage ghettoblaster so I hit up eBay and now I have an Aiwa TPR-950 on the way. Sadly, the cassette deck isn't working and although I'll be running an MP3 player through it for the time being, I'd like to make it whole again so I'll be trawling this site for info! I look forward to getting stuck in.
* "Second youth" isn't really accurate as I never really bothered with adulthood in the first place.
