I love these 1980s GE boomboxes.

I'd have the one on the bottom in a glass case in my living room. It's magnificent.

I'm going to say it now. Soon you will own every boombox model from GE. Even the rare ones. 👍

[@kyfeam]

was wondering if your the one who bought this off eBay.. she's a looker!

The 5266 is probably the best-looking model GE ever made

The two super radio models are probably the best ge boomboxes ever produced, I think there was one with a cd player that was pretty good but this was near the end of decent boomboxes. By 1988 everything made was cheapened and by the 90' the boombox scene was dominated by the panasonic cobras and the jvc kaboom. When they were introduced I didnt even consider them as a replacement to the ge I once had but now I have a kaboom and love it.
