Thrift Store Find: Panasonic CD Stereo System SA-PM16

Sometimes you can find some gems at the thrift stores.  On a recent pass through a Goodwill near my office, I came across a great little mini stereo - the Panasonic CD Stereo System SA-PM16.  A 60 watt system with robust 6-ohm speakers in wooden cabinets, it looked ready to rock and sounded pretty good on the store shelves.

When I pried off a speaker cover, the speakers looked clean and solid without a hint of deterioration.  The biggest question for a potential buyer would be: Does the CD player work?  However, it did have an RCA input on the back so it would be possible to plug in a PC or MP3 player and bypass CDs entirely.

For less than $20, it looked like a nice buy!
