jambox
Shoulder-carried music player
A jambox is a portable stereo or boombox—a large radio-cassette player carried for playing music loudly in public spaces.
The term evokes 1980s hip-hop culture, when carrying a jambox on one's shoulder was iconic street style: He walked down the block with a jambox blasting.
Now also a brand name for compact Bluetooth speakers.
