WillistonAudioLabs Posted September 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Is there a 'Turbo' bass button? You gotta know your limits with a boombox.... Yep..was gonna do a hair trick, but I'm bald...LOL. Leave the subwoofer portion at home and it is VERY portable. I also designed the subwoofer portion to fit perfectly on a fold-able Magna-Cart hand truck.
