Old School Ghettoblasters...Post your pics

Is there a cooler name than Telefunken? From their vintage mikes to everything else, ...no.

I think the only thing that sounds cooler is "funkengruven" I'm sure it's spelled wrong but it's been a while since I've seen it...Usually on a veedub.

OK I just know JC is going to bust in here with some crazy ghetto blaster : )

Infact.....here is the one I used. Lasonic was known in the early 80's for there jamboxes getting very loud. I went through two of these. Yes....I would pull this thing out of a trunk of a car in front of Pizza Hut on a saturday night. No Sh%$. Management really never had an issue with the idea....which is a real surprise.

Lasonic is making a comeback with a reissue and an iPod dock.

Cool. I like the frequency response curve on the upper left LOL....

What do you think about a modern tractrix horn loaded ghetto blaster with a built in folded bass horn?

Is there any weight or size limitations?

Hey MechMan,

Check this out.

Found it a couple of days ago.

Hey NOZ.

Good to see a value put to it, but it aint gonna be for sale any time soon. We got it through my wifes dad (RIP), and I know it's a very well built unit.

He was a big ole German lad and had pretty good taste in his equipment. We used to crank it up while sailing with him.
