i have an aiwa boombox. i just got it yeserday from a flea market. i would like to know how old it is, but i cant seem to find it easely .

this pic is not mine, but i have the same boombox as this one. the model  is ca-w85.

any info would be great, and apreceated.

1990's

tony ...the best thing you could do with that is beat it to death with a hammer ...video it and put the link up for youtube

i thought 90s, the one in the pic was from 92. but does it still consider being a ghetto blaster, being from the 90s?

no...defo not a blaster......we call them 90`s black plasticky units    eggs

hey, play nice now. i know its some pice of crap from the 90s. but where i grew up from, ive learned  to apreceate what i have, no matter what it is. to me its nice. i know it isnt nearly the best, but to me it serves its general purpous. to make loud music. now i wasnt yeling at ya or anything, but that was somthing that i had to get off my chest. if i offended you any bit i didnt mean to. 

Hey Tony, I think this is a decent find...I haven't found anything this good in a flea market or thrift store in a while.  Pickings are pretty slim.  Was it made in Japan or China?  Can't tell from the photo, which logo does it have?  

This one?

or this one?

CD player ??

looks like it has a line in -

PLENTY USEFUL !!

back in those days --sony and aiwa were very associated -

i have this sony # 440 -

with a CD player and a quiet but very nice quality sound -

they may have the same//similar speakers

it has the top logo. and it sais it was made in singapore. interesting on how the logo is different. i picked i up for 10$ i tested it out, and nothing. the owner was there, and i asked him if it worked, and he said he had it going the day before. so i got it anyway, thinking that it might have been a bad power chord, or the outlet. long tell, it was the power chord.

no cd player. dual cassete. it is really loud when its up  half way. 5 band eq. the unit( being just the center) has a built in woofer, and the removable speakers are just speakers. the sound is mint. its the aiwa ca-w85. it has 3d super bass,stereo, and dolby option. if you would like to know more i would be glas to tell.

its ok, i thought maybe that you were the type that trolls around and bashes on evryons stuff. the system sounds real good for what it is. ive already done the necesary repairs that it neaded. it neaded a diferent power chord, and the speaker wires re conected, cause they were cut. and a good cleaning, that thing had lits of dust on it, but inside it was pretty clean.

Oh my god, I've been looking for this thing for years! Can I buy it from you?

And what model is it?

tony thats a nice unit, 90's for sure but it really looks nice,
