Hello
I am looking for a vintage boombox from the 80s, similar to these Montgomery Ward pictured below.
It would be cool if it had a TV but not necessary.
The cassette player (and TV if it has one) must be working, and the speakers must sound decent as well. Also preferably it has all the contros on the front (and not the top or side) and any ports (audio in/out) on either the front or rear (and not on the top or sides).
Please let me know what you have. Prefer to keep this within the USA.

Lots to choose from with those criteria.
Use eBay & Craiglist to see what's out there - preferably near you so you can pick up in person & try-before-you-buy.
Use the Search facility on Stereo2Go to find out more about what people on here think of certain boomboxes.
Happy hunting

Hey baddbill, yes I am interested!
and yes I have tried ebay and CL, but I wanted to see what people had to offer here, hoping to find some of these MG's specifically. I have some boomboxes to trade too.

Replied, thanks Bill.
Anyone else who has a Montgomery Ward or one that fits the description please let me know. I need quite a few of these for an art project I am doing.
Here are some I have to trade that don't really work in my set up due to their design:
Sharp Trimate 3T-59
JVC 3060
Unisonic XL-929
Sanyo 7020
Citizen JCTR120
Magnasonic SC848
Realistic 16-109

Still looking for some more of these or others that fit the description for a project I am working on. Please let me know if you have one!
