I had one of these as a kid for xmas, bought from woollies, its party trick was the detachable speakers. It weighed a tonne.

i remember looking at this radio in Kays Catalogue when i was a kid, there was this one and The Sharp GF9500 on the same page, then on the opposite page was the Amstrad 8090 With the Removable Walkman and a couple of smaller radios from what i can remember, i ended up with a Sharp GF9500, my dad bought it for me brand new from a shop when i was 14, or was i 13, not sure.. Great Times back Then. Unlike Now.

This is an AKA Box, i think the main brand of these was Eversonic, i think they did an MC2 and MC3 models, i did a search and someone bought a happytone version as well, so i think they were multi badged. it sounds "ok" but i wouldn't say the bass is devastating or anything, but just average, still a nice radio though..

It was also known as the Radiotone RCX-170 Valencia. They changed the controls and the meter, but beyond that, it's the same box.
