40 Amazing Things You Can’t Find Anywhere Else But Only In Dubai
Boom Boxes

In the ’80s and ’90s, boom boxes, also known as ghetto blasters, were widely used as portable stereo systems. They were a common sight at communal gatherings and on the streets because of their appeal to young people. For many, they were also a mark of distinction and a fashion statement.
Older boom boxes, particularly from the ’80s and ’90s, are highly sought after by collectors today. Depending on the make and model, a boombox can cost anywhere from $30 to $3K. Panasonic, Sony, and Sanyo are the most sought-after brands, and those in good working order command a higher price.
