It's called a ghetto blaster

A James Bond movie directed by John Glen in 1987, starring Timothy Dalton as the agent 007, Maryam d'Abo as the Bond girl Kara Milovy, Robert Brown as Bond's superior 'M' (the head of MI6), Desmond Llewelyn as 'Q' (the head of Q division), Caroline Bliss as Miss Moneypenny (MI6 secretary) and Jeroen Krabbé as double agent General Georgi Koskov and Joe Don Baker as arms dealer Brad Whitaker, the main antagonists. The theme song performed by A-Ha. Once again western intelligence and KGB are at each other's throats. The most overlooked film in the series, but I think it's one of the best because without the trademark cheap laughs in the story, it makes the Bond character more serious and darker as well.
