Here’s a pretty rare boombox. It’s the Williamsons AIE-2000 Enviro Stereo and I would guess you probably haven’t seen one before. While it may be lacking a little in the style department it does have one feature that sets it apart from other boxes. It has seven speakers. Yes, 7. It has four speakers on the front including a couple supertweeters, a speaker on each side and a large 6 x 9 bass speaker in the back. It was made around 1985 in Hong Kong and was probably never sold in the U.S.

Here you can see the large 6 x 9 inch bass woofer that is in the rear of the boombox.

It has nice looking toggle switches and an “Enviro” switch which probably attempts to produce a fuller surround type of sound or wide sound.

The Williamsons AIE-2000 measures 19.3 x 10.6 x 5.9 inches and weighs in at just over 16 pounds.

As you can also see it has two mic inputs, a remote input and a line in. You can see the large bass speaker silhouette on the back of the boombox grill.

This particular box was sold in October of 2013 for $350.00 and had quite a number of bids so it seems to be pretty desirable amongst collectors.

  1. Hello, I come from China, have a williamsons aie-2006. It’s the same shape as you. It’s really a beautiful radio.

  2. I live in N.C. and I owned this unit. I purchased it in 1979 from a chain stored called Nichols for about $150. Yes it was heavy and I actually had to have the handles reinforced after one side had cracked. I sold it because the tape eject mechanism was the not a ‘soft eject’ and the tape carrier / door broke.
