Back in the 80’s, that picture depicts what some people called a boom-box, but, those that were in the know basically refered to it as a “Box”
ie: “Who’s bringin da box to the get down tonight?”
So, looks to me like J-Dog’s pic is a box of a box, props holmes.
The term ghetto blaster was used by squares with popped collars and members only jackets, not that theres anything wrong with that.

Boy, this thread is really taking a turn.

That sir, is not a popped collar, preppy status denied, yet as I recall, this is more accurately referenced as “A Man of Leisure”
