Panasonic RX-5080 Boombox Plus a few other's

[sinisha61]

Just looked at the manual and RX5055FA is 240V only and doesnt have voltage selector (the A designation for the Aussie market?)..

Hi,

great collection.

I have a RX5055FA from the 80's which was made for the Aussie market as it doesnt have voltage selector and is 240V 50Hz only.

It is near identical to the one at 45sec. except it has mesh grill 6inch woofers

I have the operating/spec manual if anyone is interested I can scan and email.

Cheers.

I got a 5080, someone was throwing it out because the cassette player wasnt working so i took it, actually plug my ipod to it... so i was wondering, how much it was worth?

[sofiadavispedersen]

[DecentMan4you]

@wildbillo68 No the 5080 -bbx is one of the one's that I wont be selling anytime soon but the other's might be in the future like the 5150,5110,5030,5005,5085,4945,­5090, - and a few other models in this line that I may have but cant find or remember 'right now' !!! pretty much the one's that I like are the [ 5080 and the 4975 ] - those two '2' I wont be selling anytime soon,,,, but the rest ....?

[steedums2]

looks like most of them have 5" woofers. can you put a list of the other boomboxes shown?

[DecentMan4you]

@steedums2 I could put a list but I would have to watch the video again to remember just which ones are in this one.... the 5080 has 6 inch woofer's btw... I still have all of these bbx's - Just what kind of inofrmation are you looking for?

[steedums2]

@DecentMan4you Looks like there are 2 5050's there. Is the other one with 5" speakers the 5150?

[DecentMan4you]

@steedums2 ok at 53 seconds here I just dont remember or can find that one as I just looked for it - just what model it is ... yes there are 2 50's here one is a National and the other is a Panasonic- silver/black/gray I think that the National looks better with it's woofer grills looking like a Jet AfterBurner :-)

[carphuntingod]

i've got 2 5080's from my youth;. rca line in on one has crapped out, and the tuner on the other just quit working. how tough is it to work on these things? ever seen s4ervice manuals around?

[stickyickyickie]

I have a question, I just found an RX5050 in excellent condition, everything seems to be in top shape, but when I tried to cassette player, its playing the tapes fast, chipmunk style. I tried adjusting various things but still no dice. Is this a common problem and is it an easy fix? I tried a few different tapes and they played the same.

Panasonic RX-5080 Boombox search for this video of mine and look in the more info section for a pic as to what to adjust for the speed of the deck

[cchantelx]

is it light or heavy?

[DecentMan4you]

compared to what ??? i dont understand your statement? this is a very NICE sounding fullsize Panasonic RX-5080 and the 5085 are MORE Desirable to have than AllMost the entire Lineup of Panasonic's as these have 6.5 inch woofers and real tweeter's and great tonal qualities even with just 'tone' - on the rx-5080 sound is very excellent for what this is - the only thing one wish's for is More amp power for better bass . This would be ' For Me ' a starting point to start searching for panasonic's

[TwistedBaller]

i have a rx-5080

what kind of battery does it need?

[Owlbatross]

Nice boombox. Are any of these for sale?

[DecentMan4you]

Could be for the price, I paid for which-ever of them, you are interested in. I have bought all of these off of Ebay
