Sony Walkman DD-100 Boodo Khan Portable Cassette Player
The Sony WM-DD-100 Boodo Khan is a portable cassette player first introduced in 1987 and became one of the most famous models of the whole Walkman range. It was also one of the firsts models to include a dynamic bass amplification (others were static, like an EQ).
The "Boodo Khan" (formerly, "Budokan") name refers to one of the most famous indoor arenas of Tokyo. While commonly used for martial arts competitions, it also became a popular place for many important artists and groups, who would perform there due to excellent acoustics! As such, Sony decided to give this name to the top cassette player that year.
