Gear Diary Rad Blaster  a bit of 80s boom box nostalgia with 21st century flare photo

Like a lot of kids in the 80s, I had a boom box.  It was big, loud, heavy…but oh so cool!  I used it until it finally died, about 10 years later.  I miss it. But what if I could have it back?  What would I want it to do now?  Well, I’d like it small, easy to use, able to use my MP3 collection, but still sound great.

Enter the Rad Blaster!   Its a small USB device that has an OLED screen, supports MP3/WMA/WAV audio formats and have 2GB of memory built in.  It looks and behaves like our old school boom box, but with all the cool audio of now.  For $59.99, it may be a little steep for an average MP3 player, but with its cool looks and 80s feel…why not have a bit of your youth back for Christmas?
