You better hurry and put your bid in on these before Soundhound snaps 'em up.

Not a chance - I have seen the light and the truth - I'm switching to Bose Acoustimass cubes!

They don’t have a ‘BUY IT NOW” and the last few mins of those auctions can get so dicey!

SH Go for the flagship, “50” complete HT system with included proprietary “Video Stage 5”, …its not just a decoder it’s a whole new elegant ‘LIFESTYLE”.

But does it have Logic7?

I would be feeding the Bose front end to the Lexicon processor to get Logic 7, then a Carver Hologtaphic Time Lens, then to one of those Hammond spring reverb thingies that they used to install in '56 Chevys. This ought to make my drive-in surround speakers really rock!

Throw a few tubes in the mix, and we're talking heavenly sound.

I'll match your Bo$e Acou$tima$$ and raise you one Kenner Close-N-Play!

Top that, if you dare!

Hey! Those were the days! I had one of those reverb units hooked up to the 8 track player and 4 speakers in one of the cars I owned back in my youth- but not in my 56' Chev. Also had a '57 Nomad- which I gave away

I actually remember while working at a car wash (also much later than 1957! - but they had 4 track tapes, before the days of 8 track!!!) and having cars come in with those spring reverb systems - I thought it was sooo cool to turn them up loud as I drove the car onto the ramps to go through the wash. I was just too cool - Boooiiiinnnnggggg!!!!!!!

Yup-- 4 track tapes. I hate to admit it, but I also had one of those. I think both formats were available well into the seventies, but eventually they lost out to the cassette.
