My Sister and ex Brother-In-Law bought this exact same model set around '85. This, of course, was a high end set and I know they paid a nice chunk of $$ for it. It saw heavy use for about 10 or 12 years until the CRT finally got too weak to make a satisfactory picture. I remember theirs had seperate speakers and every type of input one could possibly need. That was a time when A/V jacks were considered a luxery. Now, it's pretty much standard even on the cheapest TV's.
