Strange. I currently have two, have had several more through the past couple of years and only once met one that coay not now be attauldn't do decent bass. That example had a faulty VR in the tone correction stage of a/f. I think that a very small slater or maybe a dying slug had been in there as the track on that VR was covered in some verdigris-like slime.jimmyjimmy19702010 said:There must be something wrong with my RC-656 as all I get is very nice and clear mids and highs but zero bass! My TRK-8080 kills it for bass just to give you an extreme example. The JVC is really clean and fully serviced and 100% working with fully cleaned pots etc but low levels of bass force me to leave it on the shelf.

My 8080 wasn't bad for an Hitachi, bass wise, but the 656 had it licked - comprehensively - every time. That said the only less bass-rich box here would be another Hitachi as seen below the 656 in the vids but that responded well to corrective surgery.
