AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Toshiba BomBeat SX1 (also known as the RT-SX1) is a classic portable stereo cassette player from the early 1980s. It is prized by vintage audio collectors for its robust, Japanese-engineered design, characterized by straight lines, weighty knobs, and mechanical buttons.
This model is an iconic piece of 1980s pop culture, primarily due to its appearance in the 1989 film Say Anything..., where the character Lloyd Dobler (played by John Cusack) holds it above his head in the famous serenade scene.
44.5X14x11.4 cms.
Details and Technical Specifications:
Although Toshiba manufactured a wide range of recorders under the BomBeat line, the RT-SX1 stands out for its industrial and modular design:
It features detachable speakers that allow for an expanded stereo effect.
Audio Functions: It includes an AM/FM radio, cassette player, and a three-band graphic equalizer. Power: It offers a 10W RMS output and usually comes in silver or black.

especially this silver version, which is identical to the one in the movie.
