Hi,
I'm having some nostalgia at the moment, and I'm trying to find the boombox I had at college. I don't have much to go on, but it was quite unusual, and I reckon you lot are my best chance.

Here's what I remember:
  • Bought at an independent shop in Bedford UK in 1990 for when I went to college (showing my age there)
  • Not sure about manufacturer, but pretty sure it wasn't any of the usual ones: Sony, Panasonic etc. But I could be wrong!
  • Twin cassette
  • Analogue radio (not digital tuner)
  • No CD
  • No remote
  • Not black, but a dark brownish grey, with a matte, almost rough finish
  • Most distinctively, it came with 2 extra satellite speakers that connected with 3.5mm jacks and could be hung on the wall for "surround sound"
  • Quite big - I guess 20cm high, 60cm wide, 20cm deep?
I've searched on Google Images, and on Wikiboom, with no luck. I could draw some sketches if that would help?

Any ideas?

I just casually had another quick search on Google Images, and there it is! I'm quite proud of the sketches - pretty accurate :)

Satellite speakers not pictured though.

I'm emailing Wikiboom to add it.
