9-12-2016 -- RetroSound® will be launching its much anticipated Long Beach radio that has been two years in the making. Long Beach has the distinction of being the first ever shaft-style radio to be SiriusXM-ready™.

The challenge was "getting the software required for SiriusXM to work on a shaft-style radio with just four controls (two front and two rear knobs)," the company said. Long Beach will be available just in time for the Holiday Season.

If attending the SEMA Show (Nov 1-4), be sure to stop by the Retro Manufacturing booth #24593 located in Central Hall’s Restoration Marketplace.
