    Got another mono to go with my JVC RC550...just turned up at the office today.

    A bit scruffy but will get the usual treatment :)

    Very nice mono :biggrin: NP made some good ones and this is one of them, congrats :thumbsup:

    I would think it's for when listening to MW, LW or SW there's a lot of noise on these bands a tweeter would make it worse?

    Looks like it has pretty much everything you could want in a mono.
    Very nice.

    Love the mono Si! The scrolling tuner is a great piece.

    Looks like paint dribbles on the handle? I've a few with the same "battle damage"

    Separate bass and treble. Real rotating mic on top.
    More Features from a 550 indeed .
    What else could you ask from a Mono?
    Panasonic made some really nice machines.:)
