Pantastic collection. Some real nice condition decks! All in working order? I have lots of the shockwaves and a bunch of newer RQ-S and SX metal ones. All my BB are Panasonic. They built tuff units that sounded good and lasted. Still have my original RX-5030 from high school years mint condition plays and records perfect. my Grail is the RX-5350 maybe one lucky day... Got two RX-5150's and then what i hoped would be my grail a RX-5500 from a member here it needed complete cleaning.....head was worn and rusted as was the pinch roller sound level on tape play was half of fm loudness after cleaning and demagnetizing and lubing I got it working nice and looking good...just need a door for it as the deck came with the door broken it fell off on opening...:-(  thats what I like hunting and finding parts or donor units to part out. Keeps me sane or as my wife says "freaking insane 80's throwback" Rock on brother!

Agentorange would be proud of these players!  His cup of tea! I must agree. Some of these players are truly hard to find. I am still looking for the fm way wired tuner and the am-fm tuner.  I am very happy with the way these pictures turned out!  Enjoy!

Oh, not half, these are the best designed units Panasonic ever made and the only true contender to the Sony WM-2 in my view.  You have the complete range here and especially like the red one.
