Actually, IMHO, *all* Seeburgs have       excellent sound. They have very well-designed audio systems, from cartridge       to amps to speakers. I worked on a Mardi Gras a year ago with the Solid State       High power amp, and        at high volume it was truly awesome.              * jimmy in MD              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
