    Bush detachable from 1982. I'm sure there must be an AKA of this but looking through the thread I haven't spotted it.

    The specific model was made firstly by Orion as pst-1 .
    After was rebranded from Amstrad as 8090 model and from Sencor as S-5600.
    Still made by Orion.
    Really interesting model but with many problems.

    I don't know if that's or an AKA (also known as) but it's a great looking boombox.

    I posted this in the Crown Thread, Crown also had a detachable portable cassette player from around 1977. The CRC 9980F

    I know for us kids, anything that might be close to a James Bond Gadget was gold back then. Small radios and TVs qualified and these Kangaroo Boxes were even better. As most know, this stuff was very expensive, even the cheaper Yorx Stuff was more costly than a good Sanyo Sportster.
