Haha he's even had to wrap the handle to try and alleviate the weight!

hell that box is prolly pretty damned loud. just wish he woulda mounted the woofers better . love the tweeters though.

he must have been a past student of one of my evil upgrade clinic's but failed woofer mounting 101.

aside from that it's a pretty good upgrade .

One slip of a finger can poke through the woofers! He is handling it like a baby! I'm pretty sure this was done for photography!

I wouldn't have it any other way....

"One of the most annoying and dreadful elements of the late 1970s and 1980s was the boombox. This portable party machine could be cranked to deafening levels, even outdoors against the ambient din of the city. At times it felt like there was no escaping it – the ghetto blasters were everywhere to be found including spaces where one expected quiet enjoyment like parks. To make matters worse, the music played was very limited, typically disco, a genre I quickly grew to abhor, or hip hop. You would not hear anything else, certainly not classical, country, blues or classic rock. We prayed for the death of disco and these infernal machines. Our wishes were eventually granted but it was an interminable wait of a decade."
