It's why there are still 2 of them in my garage. I think I will keep this 18+ year old S-500 until the wheels fall off it.

I have had it for 10.5 years and it now has over 200k on the odometer so far! I would like to see it go another 10 years 100k or more.

6 disk CD changer, single DVD drive in dash which can hold 4+GB of mp3s. Analog buttons and knobs, etc.

No big deal, just another day of testing.

Go fishing at the spa.

Or...go spa-ing with the fish?

I did that with just my feet in Singapore.

Very cool, but are the $70-$80 each, cool? I think the novelty would wear off quickly. Would feel terrible if you dropped one! lol

Used. Asking price $10,500 Retail price $21,500

Sure it has two tonearms but, the extra tonearm is "only" $2,200 or so new without a cartidge.

And that is not even close to their top end that retails over $50k.

The Evolution of ORD

@George-K
I went to the grand opening of ORD with my family and said hello to Mayor Richard J. Daley. The GM of ORD was a close relative of the Mayor - and a friend of my father.

Consistent with my experience.

Easily removable staples.

How the hell did I not know this until today?
