One of the things that I miss in the 1980s, apart from my youth, my size and my faith in humanity, is the Boombox. The Boombox is one of the most important audio technology pieces ever made: it has removed music from the bedroom or the living room and in the streets, rap and breakdance battles and pop culture for the best.
And now it’s back! Back! BACK!
The new we are Rewind GB-001 looks like a boombox. He plays bands like a boombox. And he records on these bands like a boomox. But it is also delivered with welcome improvements compared to the devices of the 80s which inspire them so clearly.
We rewind at Boombox GB-001: Key features and price
The big differences this time are the batteries and the Bluetooth. The first means that your Boombox will not be used to climbing the battery which I have remembered my Sanyo for a long time: the rechargeable and rechargeable battery of 3,000 mAh is good for 10 hours on speakers and 15 with headphones.
Second, there is Bluetooth 5.4 so that you can diffuse from your smartphone if you prefer not to transport a bag full of audio strips with you. You can also connect an external sound source via 3.5 mm socket or use an external microphone for recording.
It is much stronger than my boombox has never been so: 104W of power gracked the amplification of class D.
The specification includes dynamic power control to reduce distortion, Dolby B emulation for these cassettes reduced by noise and support for normal (type I) and chrome (type II) strips. And at 6.81 kg (just under 15 pounds), it is not so heavy that you will not want to take it anywhere.
The new Boombox is unveiled today, on May 15, at the High End Munich 2025 Hi -Fi Show – We plan to follow it as soon as possible. There is not yet a confirmed release date, but the official price is very reasonable at £ 379 / € 449 (around $ 505 / $ 781 in).
