I have a panny RX-CW43.. good sound , both tapes are working, overall very good condition. It needs cleaning to bring it to AWESOME cosmetic condition. I;m testing both tapes and both tapes are working fine. graphic equalizer, stereo II mono I .cd/line ipod ect.both tapes open and close smoothly.original antennae some distorson when adjusting the volume. it needs cleaning otherwise sound is GREAT. It;s my conclusion that this boombox was not used hard.. it was used very slightly. PM if interested
