    Danny, do you still have the 8 track mounted under the dash in your car? A pair of Kraco speakers and a skunk air freshener?;):D

    Had a pair of Jensen 6X9 Triaxials once in my 77 Chevy Malibu. A Clarion AM/FM Cassette and an Audiovox Power Booster w/7 band EQ. That rig wailed. :D

    Is this a joke?!!!

    If not, I'm shocked the fabrication chain still exists to make such a product.

    What? Instead of wasting time and manufacturing on an extremely outdated 8-track that most likely 90% [or more] of the public doesn't even have a playback mechanism for........why don't they put it on SACD?

    ...........or is the recording/tunes that crappy to where they put it in its place?

    I had a brand new 8 track tape player in the box I had for years. I sold it on ebay a couple of years ago for $150. not sure why anybody would want one. I guess if you were building a classic car and wanted to keep the vintage look on it.
