The only thing that irks me about the PC-55 is that I get no VU action unless the tape is playing. If that is by design, JVC sucked it big time. :thumbsdown:

If you really want the vu's on, hit record and pause. The vu's will work while listening to fm, aux, etc... :lol: :-P
What... there's no toothpick trick for that too? :-P

I agree. And with the speaker mod I did, it is like listening to diamonds glistening in the moonlight - in other words - magical! :-)

It's actually not bad! :-D It doesn't hold a candle to it's big brother or most of my powerhouses but it's certainly no doissapointment. I need to do some work on it to get it 100% starting with that damn power switch. :-/

But boy does it look good! :thumbsup:
