Sure, it would just seem like a traditional boombox, and even perhaps sound like one, but the Roots Rock is endorsed by the Marley family. And it has canvas straps! Perfect for listening to… hmm… Daft Punk? The Flaming Lips?
Aside from its Rastafarian aesthetic and being fodder for much of poor pot jokes, the Roots Rock seems capable enough for those Reggae fans wanting both a boombox, iPhone dock , and a number of other cargo pockets. If I had lots of friends, we might take this to the beach and make a bonfire, while enjoying the boombox’s dual 4-inch speakers and dedicated tweeter, all donned in recycled plastic. And then we might remain sober, and discuss global finance. Bonus karma: portion of the proceeds from the House of Marley audio line will go towards the family’s 1Love charitable foundation.
