Ultimate Ghetto Blaster iPod Dock

GeekSugar — Fri, 10 Aug 2007 02:34:37 -0700

There are simple iPod boom boxes and plenty of boom box-inspired iPod setups, but I have yet to see anything that even comes close to the Lasonic Ghetto Blaster. The device is 15-pounds and features an iPod dock and support for USB flash drives and SD/MMC memory cards. No word on price or release day, but it's certainly hood fab.

Go Retro With An iPod Boom Box

GeekSugar — Fri, 12 Jan 2007 11:01:21 -0800

Remember the scene in the 80's classic Say Anything where Lloyd Dobler, played by my love John Cusack, stands outside Diane Court's house and pumps Peter Gabriel on his boom box? I literally think of that scene every single time I see a boom box - which translates to: I love and need this iHome clock radio/boom box.

The Boom Box for iPod & Shuffle, $129.99, has six FM radio presets and allows you to listen to your iPod music or radio station anywhere. It runs on batteries, AC outlet or car adapter so you can use it at home, camping or on the road. Also charges the iPod when the AC adapter is connected.

Irresistible Retro-Style Stackable Lego Sound Gear

GeekSugar — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 11:11:23 -0700

I have to admit, Urban Outfitters is doing a great job featuring fun, geeky gadgets! The latest are two awesome Lego-themed products: the Lego Stereo CD Boombox ($58) and the Lego Stereo Alarm Clock ($38).

The alarm clock features radio or buzzer alarm, AM/FM radio, and volume and tuning wheels on top. The boom box has a CD player and line in to connect your iPod. The cutest part? They're designed to stack - the alarm clock fits right on top of the CD player, just like real Legos.

To see more photos of the Lego Stereo Alarm Clock, just read more.

Muji Wall-Mounted CD Player: Justify My Love

GeekSugar — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 06:00:24 -0700

I actually no longer have a dedicated CD player anymore; if a CD does, in fact, need to be played, it can be thrown into the DVD player or the optical drive of one of our many home computers. However, now I'm kind of lamenting the fact that I don't need a CD player, because I can in no way justify this Muji Wall-Mounted CD Player ($178).

Muji, for the uninitiated, creates spare, clean products, as is evident with this CD player, which is finally available in the US. Mounted on a wall, it's light years prettier than my big old bulky boom box I had years ago. I also love the ingenious power cord; you merely tug it to turn the player on and off.

Sadly, it shan't be mine, because I can't make a good enough excuse to own it - and it even goes with that all-white gadget color scheme I have suddenly become obsessed with.
