Hold up....THIS is a Panasonic?

Looks pretty boss with that sticker and those chrome accents. Get it on Ebay now! Apparently it was originally intended for the Middle East. I'm not sure what's the point of having 3-way speakers and bi-amping in a tiny little mono box like that, though.

As for 30W PMPO......probably more like 0.5W RMS, lol....

Yes, as I was also told this model is for the Middle East.
Like this Panasonic RX-CT600.

I've seen they still sell cassette recorders and this kind of boomboxes in Middle Eastern supermarkets in the audio section. Even new cassette tapes!

And this Panasonic RX-CT650.
Maybe 3 years ago my hobby pal saw them being sold new in Dubai.
Last year I was about to buy one on Ebay but then changed my mind, due to lack of space.

I also saw them in Dubai indeed

Yep , this Panny already made in Indonesia.

Another modern model I am aware of:
Panasonic RX-CS45

Anybody interested? Some of them are still available in my neighborhood hypermarket shelves. From Sony too.

Hi Reli- so I know you posted this awhile ago now.Did you buy one of these new pannies?If so how do you like it?As I just contacted the seller on eBay and he says they will be getting more of 'em soon.I think I'm gonna get one but would like to speak to someone who owns one to see what they say about them.

 

[Reli]

Nah I never did........I just assumed they were probably crap quality.

 

[ralrein1]

Oh yee of little faith,ha,ha,ha!I think I'm gonna take the plunge and get one.As soon as their available.I'll let everyone know the cold hard facts of whether or not they are crap or not.As far as looks go,they look pretty good.Also I'm not buying that peak music output bullstuff.If it puts out 4 or 5 watts,that'll be fine with me.
