Superamplified boom box
From A KoL Wiki
superamplified boom box
This is a boom box modified by the frat boy engineers, who have managed to turn the bass up to a nearly impossibly-high level. When activated, it will emit a single, booming bass note, knocking out anything in the vicinity with a concussive blast. After that single ground-shaking, speaker-blowing, eardrum-shattering utterance, it will remain forever silent. Kinda sad if you think about it, bra.

| In space, nobody can hear this horrible music. Also you lose your grip on the boom box and it hurtles off toward the far reaches of the galaxy, where hopefully nobody will ever hear it. |

As soon as you pull the boom box out of your sack, it explodes, leaving behind nothing but a damaged speaker cone.
