You seem to be hooked... there is no escape now. The machines are going to get more and more attractive and with so many great choices out there your bank account might begin to complain. :)I had the 580 many years ago, I only remember making a replacement head cover for it, and running one extra wire inside, that fixed the problem.
It is a cute machine and Sony quality needs no introduction, but yes, most likely at least some lubing will be required, and capacitor replacement is always recommended on equipment of that age. Their issues can manifest themselves from some subtle sound difference to total silence.
