GE 3-5286A
The 3-5286 is a mid-sized, 4-speaker Boombox manufactured by General Electric in 1981 and 1982. It has a classic, old-school appearance, with great-looking knobs and toggle switches. Also, the paint on the metal faceplate has a nice metallic flake in it. But the best thing about this boombox is the beautiful green-edge acrylic used on the tuner and tape window.

It is approximately 18.5 inches long and weighs 12.4 lbs (5.6 kg) without batteries. GE decided to upgrade the woofers midway through the production run. Boomboxes with a date code of 1148 and later got the better woofers.
