Sharp CT-6001

There were several ghettoblasters with a TV, but the vast majority were black and white. This CT-6001, also called The Searcher, has a color TV, which explains why it was so expensive. 159,800 Yen according to the Sharp catalog. I think that's the highest I've ever seen for a 1980's boombox! It measures 592x276x353 mm, and it has 16cm woofers and 2cm tweeters. It puts out 6 watts per channel on DC, according to the EIAJ/DC standard.
