ok when you sit these two boxes down on a table side to side and take a look at them there is more than a few similarities.
they are really close in design and looks in many ways.
they weigh about the same and there just had to be more to the story here than just two boxes that look a lot like one another.
the sideways sliders the speakers also seem to share a lot in common with each other in fact there is similarities in the way they two sound.
i kind of think of a pc8 in todays market as the next best thing to a pc55 or 550 if you cant find one of those.
i will say this tho of the two i have now both have had bum tape decks.
the tape deck on them seems like it would be fantastic if it worked.
both the pc8 and pc550 seem to be plauged with scratchy volume sliders that need lots of cleaning and regular care. the the tuner on both of them is quite good and for sheer volume they both can really get loud with great sound but the pc8 does fall behind the pc550.
now i have heard this said before that the pc8 is a reworked pc550 is it true does anyone know the story.
were they infact made at the same factory they just are so close.that i cant see how there cant be some kind of relationship between the two or is it all just in my overactive imagination.
