BoomRoom / Gaming Room update

[TechnicsDan82]

So iv now put up a shelf and some brackets for my Boomboxes and had a bit more room to play with so iv now added a glass self unit that now has my small 80s CRT tv set that has my Atari 2600 on it (as ya do) & also my Xbox 360 & my jvc top loader vhs recorder ! so i thought id share some pics with you all !

This place looks very good. This mini TV looks so cool.
I like shelfs made of drawers, with cassettes, movies and games collection.
What is this mixer with two cassettes, I never seen before?
I'm not sure, the right name is men's cave...

Nice! I need to get my man cave up and running again, miss what I had. All my stuff is packed away in storage at the moment until I get either a place of my own or move somewhere bigger. It all used to be at my nan's shed, somewhat organised chaos!

I'd love to have some cabinets with my Walkman's out, my games consoles all hooked up, and a wall of boomboxes!

But I love what you've done, looks really clean and organised!

I think the key is not to have too much if you can stop yourself lol ! iv kinda kept too having a set amount of Boomboxes or it would get silly and out of controle & you can never use them all at one given time so i have a few that work perfectly and some that dont so they are just for show to look cool ! im starting to collect more of the gaming consols to as you can now buy all in one games for them or indeed mod them with sd cards from japan ! i use a big old 90s Toshiba crt for my consols manly but the small 80s hinari portable is used for my late 70s gaming stuff & sometimes betamax ! i would love to start a small walkman collection but prices are that of crack prices & i wont pay that for a tape player lol ! i must say from your photo you have an awesome collection of retro gear fairplay .

I have around 140ish consoles and computers in my collection! You can never have too much of a good thing in my book. My Walkman collection stands around 100ish I'd guess, md players and discmans around 70ish, radio control cars (mainly Tamiya and Kyosho and a few toy grade ones) around 150ish, boomboxes around 20ish. So yes, I'm a serial hoarder of things I like! My brother is the same, anything 80's toy related he's all over it, has around 700 (yes 700!) transformers, He-man, Star Wars, other obscure stuff, his room is a shrine to it all! Hence why all my stuff is in storage!

Anyway, I love the look of the black system mounted on the wall, what model is this one?

cool youtube channel too man !

Thanks.
In my channel I showed short videos of part of My Boombox Collection.
I have a few more videos left, I hope it will be soon.
I also showed some Audio Mixes that I made years ago.
I still make some mixes, but due to copyright I can't publish them.

Thank you ! the mixer thing is an Amstrad Studio 100 mate !

This mixer is very interesting, like a mini studio + radio + turntable.
