Amstrad 8090 Boombox

You can’t say the ’80s were boring. With music being big business, you had to go big on radios, or Boomboxes as they were called.

Here we have the Amstrad 8090 Boombox, manufactured in 1984 by Amstrad, London. It boasted two removable “Walkman” style, mobile cassette players. Certainly a neat idea.


Features

The music boombox featured 4 speakers, FM radio, and two tape decks.
