    I thought boomboxes were peak coolness in the 80’s.

      My dad wouldn’t let me get one with 2 speakers. Only one speaker. I still don’t understand that reasoning.

        lol, that’s weird. “I forbid you from listening to music in stereo!”

          Probably too much stimulation like that Kellogg brother was talking about.

            Or maybe he thought two speakers would be louder, and he didn’t want to be constantly bombarded by your satanic rap music.

                That configuration allows for a much larger driver than if you had stereo mains—probably get some decent boom out of it

        Two speakers, meh. A lot of them had two tape decks and could copy tapes at 2x or 4x speed, for one-click music piracy.
