Default Today's music ain't got the same soul.

Found this nice little 50-watt power amp under my passenger side-seat when I removed it this weekend. I think it's obvious that an OB restore just wouldn't be complete without such a fine piece of car audio history, so I'm selling it for the low price of $10,000 or to the highest bidder --no reserve. You don't want to listen to "That old time rock 'n roll" any other way. Get it before it's gone!

Did you lick both terminals on the battery again?

So what else is hidden under your seats? Jimmy Hoffa?

I'll give you $9500, but that's my final offer.

Here's another one, and it even comes with a matching EQ. You could have one under each seat!

Hmmm. No, I think I'll pass. The bidding just began.

Too many watts. The reason it's so cheap is likely because the PO turned-up the volume and blew-out the back quarter panel windows.

That's how you test an OB battery, no?

Proton used to be pretty good.

Not sure on the same soul, but the new Linkin Park is growing on me (as my son has played it 37 times since the weekend).
