Right let's see. Can you tell me anymore about it? was it big or quite slim, did it have 2 speakers or any extra ones for bass, etc. Did it have anything written on it that you remember like "hyperbass" or anything, did it have a CD player, did the speakers come off, did it have round edges or sharp corners?
Anyway, here's my best guess so far, the JVC RC-W3:

Anyway, that's a Hitachi 3D80. They come up fairly regularly on eBay UK (don't bother internationally - the shipping will be a killer), & go for sensible money mostly. It's a good boombox - plenty of toys & damn loud for the size. Sure it's not hifi, but that was never the point of these, was it?
There's one on eBay Canada now if you want some more pics:
