Right now I've been busy rebuilding and refurbishing a Rock-Ola juke box.
Don't even bother asking why. They *are* amazing though .... 360 watt RMS
stereo amp and connections for everything under the sun.


Cool - always wanted one of those.

Hard to do?




Not what I am doing. We bought it in Florida when we had the house down
there. It is a used, commercial unit that was taken out of service and
refurbished. (It plays CD's .... not records).

When it was moved back up here it got sorta banged around and nothing
worked. I've been slowly going through it, learning about it as I go. The
mechanical mechanisms are pretty cool, but the electronics in them are wild.
It has a computer that memorizes every song on every track of the loaded
CD's. It holds about 100 I think. Big ass amp, surround sound hookups,
paging, even high voltage (70 volt) speaker hookups for use in a store or
mall.

I told Mrs.E that when it finally dies for good, I am going to strip it of
all the amps, speakers, etc. It's an electronic junk lover's delight.
