    From the HiFi Yearbook 1974, the Standard KR2000, I just cut and pasted the description, start where it says Standard and disregard the info under the photo.

    From 1976, the National Panasonic RS-4300. One of the early boombox beauties, big money back then.

    The National Panasonic RF-8000 from 1975, I think the RF-9000 came out shortly after for much more money.

    This might be a duplicate? From 1973, Radio Fernseh Haendler. Even Intel had a boombox!

    Stereo & Video 1997, it's amazing they were still reviewing a ton of boomboxes and portables this late in the game.
