How to Buy Your Boombox
Recent technology has increased the sound quality you get with today's boomboxes, but keep in mind that they still do not compare to a complete Home Component system or Compact/Shelf System. Portability and convenience are the primary benefits of a boombox. Manufacturers are learning to make better-sounding small speakers, though the laws of physics still demand a large enclosure to produce solid bass. Because manufacturers know their boomboxes will never equal component systems, they continue to compensate with formidable flurries of features and beefy bass.
